Hotel is in a great location but we had booked a deluxe twin room and the beds were so soft, the room was anything but deluxe with a view of a wall and so outdated and the included continental breakfast was tinned fruit in syrup and plain yoghurt and toast. Definitely can do much better for the price. On the plus, the shower was good.

Old property in need of an update. Even though it’s old and needs updating, no excuse for dirty. Would not recommend
