"This is a fantastically located hotel right in the heart of the city centre. You can walk to anywhere in a few minutes but so quiet we heard no noise. The room was clean with towels provided, a small fridge, safe and TV plus area pot for tea. Breakfast is simple but decent to get you started. The staff are very friendly and they let us leave our bags until later in the afternoon when we were checking in elsewhere. The room is perfect for a couple, would recommend it if you're on foot and want to be centrally located."
