Enttäuschend
Pros:

Zentrale Lage und dennoch ruhig. Großes, geräumiges Zimmer und Badezimmer.

Cons:

Parkplatz nicht 100% sichergestellt, wenn der Innenhof voll ist, dann muss man auf kostenpflichtige Parkmöglichkeiten ausweichen (war bei uns leider der Fall). Die Heißwasseraufbvereitung für unser Zimmer war leider defekt. Kalt Duschen und sich waschen macht leider nur bedingt Spaß. Das Frühstück war eher einfach. Kein Wasser, kein frisches Obst, keine Eierspeisen. Die Dame an der Rezeption war wenig empathisch bei unserer Ankunft. Statt freundlich empfangen zu werden, hat man mir erstmal das mobile Bezahlgerät entgegengestreckt um meine Rechnung im voraus zu bezahlen. Angesprochen auf die Parkplatzsituation hat man nur mit den Schultern gezuckt. Kein Angebot einer Lösung, auch nicht auf Nachfrage. Sehr schade aber die Unterkunft hat es anscheinend nicht nötig, dass Gäste ggf. ein zweites mal hier buchen.

On-site parking, close to places of interest.
Pros:

On-site parking, easy walking distance to the Town Centre and places of interest. Friendly staff.

Cons:

Loud and constant traffic noise from the A road and roundabout. Old windows, not double-glazed that made cracking noises with the wind but if opened, kept awake by the traffic. No towel rack or toilet roll holder, shower wasnt great.
