Lovely stay in Plymouth.

Lovely one night stay in Plymouth. Terrific location close to the Hoe and the Barbican, easy walk. Breakfast was amazing, very generous continental buffet and a hot breakfast to order, all delicious. Bed was comfortable. It was a good climb up narrow stairs, as per many UK hotels. Otherwise a great value for money.
