Lovely, central faded glory
This is such a lovely place to stay. Right by the station, not too expensive, really nice staff and clean. Sure it is a bit dated and parts of it could do with a refresh but my room had been recently renovated and i loved being so central.

Not quite so grand…
Not quite so “Grand”. The staff are all great and doing their best with what they have. The hotel is in dire need of a refurbishment and maintenance; things such as decoration, faulty lights, and bathroom extractors sounding like a jet engine!
The windows are metal framed double glazing which generate masses of condensation and make the net curtains mouldy in areas.
Our room reported an extractor fan which didn’t turn off without removing the key card to remove all electricity from the room which was the only staff disappointment.
Such a shame as it’s a great location and the staff are wonderful. Owners please take note!

Enjoyable stay with a few exceptions.
Our stay overall was pleasant. However we noticed several light switches didn’t work, and our bedside lamps had no shades making them too bright. We couldn’t turn off the bathroom light without removing the card from the wall, and the floor was very cold, despite the air conditioning.
I would recommend this hotel for short term stays/business only unless you have your entire holiday planned out.
