Lovely place, just needs better curtains and an update to the shower.
Pros:

Very central and nice staff! Also very clean and well furnished.

Cons:

There were no curtains, just paper blinds so I was up at the crack of dawn with the light coming in the window. The bathroom was nice and clean, but the shower head needs a change as it was leaking.

Great place to stay
Pros:

Very friendly receptionist. Hotel is very cosy and has a warm feeling to it. Room is fairly modern with a decent sized TV and a shower which is easy to use

Cons:

Room was a little bit on the small side, Hotel entrance wasn't clear on how to enter as front door to Hotel is permanently locked and required room key.
