Great stay

Really great hotel stay. Staff were all lovely and helpful. Great location. Great room. Clean. All the amenities you need. Daily housekeeping. Great breakfast. Very busy at breakfast but managed to get all we wanted. Only downside was no decent fruit. Fruit bowl things mouldy. Apart from that a top stay. Would use again.

Dirty sofa

Our room faced onto Chapel Street and was noisy Friday night due to the nightclub nearby. Hotel in general was very good, facilities fine, staff friendly and helpful. Our room sofa was showing its age and looked dirty, we did not sit on it.
