We stayed here for 3 nights and had a pleasant experience. The rooms have been renovated and are modern. The rest of the building is tired and outdated. Beds were comfortable and soft. Rooms fitted with a kitchenette including a sink, microwave, fridge, toaster and kettle. With milk, tea and coffee on hand. Crockery and cutlery were also supplied. Our room had a balcony with 2 chairs. Bathroom facilities were pleasant. Our only issue was the leaky shower. Large room, quiet and clean. Location is within 5-10 minutes of the city centre and parking is included on site for guests.

The rooms have been done up but the building is tired.
Soundproofing isn't great. Bed wasn't great either. Room was good value for money.
The location is handy: close to town, Park nearby, restaurant on the doorstep

Great value, clean and comfortable, quiet. Across from the park/river so we could walk into town.

A less than average hotel, not clean and with dated rooms.
I stayed 4-nights in February, room and furnishing dated, bed was soft and worn out, noisey fridge and little ammenities. TV remote oly turned the TV on/off, no other controls worked, no air conditioning, and external door that did not lock properly.
Wouldn't call it a hotel, Restaurant next door has separate owners, so no charge-back to room was available (told this is only for regular/ repeat guests), reception was not manned, even when trying to get service no one would answer phone.
Would not stay here again.
