"Attentive and friendly staff. Historic building, lots of character. Breakfast was croissants, muffins, toast, juice and great strong coffee!
The bed was huge and comfy, no street noise.
Close to restaurants in town.
Definitely recommend this hotel, it’s different and quirky with a big personality. "
"This room was simple, but clean and the shower was good. The owner gave me an upgrade so that I did not have to share a bathroom. For the price, it exceeded my expectations."

One of the few busy town centres left in the UK. Nice river area. Some great characters, and a mix of people types. Swans eat from your hand. Buskers. Happy mood.. it was sunny.

Its a bustling town, but night times can feel unsafe to strangers. Lots of beggars on the street but normally a good police presence and town pastors too. Like any uni town it can be rowdy and feel intimidating but thats the world we live in.

The town is being done up. It's got some lovely history and architecture unfortunately whilst the work is done a lot of people asking for money/ cigarettes around the station and surrounding area.

Great location close to station. Parking a little further from hotel, but discounted for Ibis guests. Central location so some street noise balanced by the abundance of eating/shopping available.
"So close for the station and city centre. Was buzzing outside with bars and clubs, but silent in the hotel. Clean and fresh, feels new. Staff really friendly! "
"While the hotel is older, the rooms are spacious, the people are so helpful with bringing bags early, nice check-in etc. the restaurant is great and breakfast is free. Very nice all round! "
