Won’t be staying again
Pros:

Comfy Bed & Clean Room

Cons:

Shower didn’t work properly.

Heating was on high and for too long - only turn off about 2am.

Kitchen fan making loud noise outside bedroom through the night.

Worst part was that our room was above a night club which the hotel only alerted us too 24 hours before when we received the check in details via private message on booking.com, insanely loud music and clubbers until 2am each night Saturday and bank holiday Sunday. Not fair on guests.

Excellent accommodation with very friendly & helpful staff. Located in the middle of town.
Pros:

Very friendly, helpful reception & bar staff. Room & bed very comfortable. Handy bar downstairs for food but can get very busy on a Saturday (book in advance!) Lots of warnings given about their nightclub which apparently can get very noisy, but both Friday & Saturday nights (in October) were no problem at all for us - maybe in the summer it's worse? (They even supply earplugs in the room if needed!) Cooked breakfast choices good.

Cons:

Nothing!
