A comfortable stay in a great location, with spacious rooms and thoughtful service.
Pros:

Great location, close to shops and restaurants, and only a 5 minute walk to the InterCity bus stop. The room was spacious and comfortable, with free washing and drying facilities. The staff had even turned on the heater before I arrived.

Cons:

The hotel is a little dated, but the facilities are well maintained. Nothing major to complain about.
