Fabulous location, could do with a refresh in room.
Pros:

Location was incredible, staff were lovely

Cons:

The bed in room 4 was very uncomfortable the mattress was thin and very used, it was like sleeping on springs.
The place could do with a refresh, whilst bedding was fresh, the bathroom had sealant broken, broken tiles and stains on carpet.

Good when you need to be close to Cathedral.
Pros:

Friendly staff; great breakfast. Close to Cathedral. Generous room and bathroom size. Nice to have a big bath as well as an excellent shower. Given the heat in the room we appreciated the huge electric fan.

Cons:

Room very very hot and - of course given location - very noisy.

Ideal central location. Helpful staff. lovely room.
Pros:

Lovely large room with comfortable seating area. Perfect location opposite the cathedral, the venue I was using in the day. Helpful staff.

Cons:

A bit noisy - outside seating and other cafes very busy in the evening and in the hot weather I needed the windows open.
