Excellent room very close to the city centre and attractions
Pros:

Room was very spacious, clean and comfortable. It had facilities for making tea and coffee, plus a mini bar you could purchase from was available. The one suite toilet and shower were a good size and had a supply of toiletries. The room also had a TV

Great location, warm welcome, great hotel.
Pros:

Loved the location, great area on Marygate.
The decor was really nice.
We stayed in the deluxe loft suite, would 100% recommend(if you are ok with quite steep steps). The room was large and set out well. Would stay here again.
Had a very warm welcome from Ian, he was welcoming and helpful. All the staff are lovely.

Cons:

Forgot my shower gel, used the ones provided, not the best quality (stated on the website it was a different product). Nothing major, loved everything else.
