Arrived Sunday afternoon, all lights in reception were off and felt very unwelcoming. No heating in room was very cold. Was told would turn thermostat up but made no difference. Radiators cool, room cold. Unpleasant damp smell in bathroom.

Good comfortable and well-located

Very well located. Only disappointment was that the hotel car park was full. If the website had made clear that this needed to be booked, I would have done so. As it was I had to lug heavy bags quite a distance with no offer of help. On the plus side, breakfast was excellent

Lovely central hotel

Lovely hotel right in the centre. Comfortable room, good bathroom with lovely toiletries. Tasteful decor in communal areas. As it is a small hotel it’s a good idea to inform them when you will arrive.
