Always a pleasure being in Raglan, we love it.
Pros:

Location was fairly close to the city centre.
We didn't have breakfast.

Cons:

It would have been good to have dishwasher liquid as well as shampoo and a hair dryer available.

Great location and fun place to stay.
Pros:

Very basic accommodation but price echoed this. Very clean and good shared bathroom facilities.

Cons:

A bit noisy when other guests moving around late at night but not unexpected when staying an old hotel.
