Just about value for money given it is walking distance to the city centre.
Pros:

Well located, clean and some very helpful hotel team members.

Cons:

There was a damp smell on entering the room, and the bathroom seemed to be the source. The rooms were smaller than expected and no shelves for storing clothes. The bed was firm which was adequate.
