Nice little modern boutique hotel in great location.
Pros:

Great location, good little boutique hotel. Small, modern room, nicely designed with a roomy bathroom, had a coffee pod machine, bed was comfy, think it had a memory phone mattress, TV had all the platforms available. Quiet room but no view but that hardly mattered. Reasonable value, would stay there again. Appreciated getting an Email from Mrs Banks outlining all the parking options close by.
