"Loved it. It was everything I'd hoped it'd be and more - can't recommend it highly enough. The location is extremely convenient and the rooms are incredible. They came with more extras than I expected (ironing board, hairdryer, underfloor heating). I'll definitely be staying again"

"The hotel has a great location, walking distance to dinning and shops. When we check in staff was super nice and friendly, however on our way out the lady was moody and not helpful at all. Breakfast was really good and bar drinks great."
