Hotel of character in a good location with friendly bar serving food for many hours.
Pros:

Independence in having own key into the building. Lofty, quiet bedroom with good bathroom. Food/drink available in the downstairs saloon over many hours. Location opposite the central bus station a bonus for day trips out of town.

Cons:

Not enough storage or shelf space for clothes and other items in the bedroom.
