Pros:

Lovely hotel. Location was great, close to train station and bus station (10 min walk to each). Nearest tram stop is a couple of minutes away and there’s a Co-op round the corner. Plenty other shops, pubs and cafes within easy walking distance. Friendly staff, and good breakfast in relaxed surroundings. Our room was spacious, clean, quiet and comfortable with excellent WiFi. Would certainly recommend and would happily return!

Quick overnight
Pros:

Quick overnight before a flight back to the US. We came after check in but our room wasn’t ready which was frustrating. Came back after dinner and got in. The bathroom knobs on the shower were backwards and a little tough to shower without getting water on the floor. Otherwise comfortable beds - they made up a bed for my son and we slept well. Nice fan with cold steam. Breakfast was pretty good and did the job. Available at 7 am for our early departure. Fast walk to the train.
