Central location but needs updating.
Pros:

Great central location with friendly staff. The rooms were clean and comfortable. The breakfast is satisfactory.

Cons:

The hotel is old and outdated and could do with bringing up to date. the corridors had an odd 'old musty ' smell which was a bit off putting. The breakfast was 'ok', I asked for toast but never received it. There is no late bar at the hotel.
