“While the location might appeal to some, be aware that some rooms involve shared bathrooms, which might not suit every traveler's preference; also, noise from other guests can be a concern. From what I gathered, the property's upkeep seems to be an area needing improvement. It appears that budget-conscious priorities come at the expense of some comforts.”

Functional Stay Near Town

short walkgood comfortthick curtainsbathroom door
the location was near town, just a short walk. beds had good comfort and thick curtains blocked the light well. i liked that extending the checkout time to 1 pm cost just £10.
the shared bathroom setup was not ideal. noise traveled easily, and the bathroom door made loud sounds until 2 am. this made it hard to rest on saturday night.

Good Value and Convenient Location

effective showeruseful microwavesmall refrigeratorsoft beds
I appreciated the effective shower within the room. a useful microwave was also available. A small refrigerator was handy for storing drinks. The soft beds made a positive difference to my rest. I extended my checkout time, from 10 AM to 1 PM, for a small fee (it was quite convenient).
The corridor had a slight strange smell.

The hotel has quiet surroundings. The check-in process took place at a separate location, a detail prospective guests should keep in mind.
Rooms

The double room contained a comfortable bed. I found the room clean and well-kept upon arrival and it had up to standard comfort. The room was perfect with everything a person needs during a stay.
Dining

While there isn't a dedicated dining area, the inclusion of a microwave and refrigerator in the room allows guests to prepare and store simple meals and snacks (quite a nice option). This setup provided me with the ability to manage my own dining arrangements.
Location

The hotel benefits from a central location, a feature I certainly found beneficial. Its centrality allows for simple movement around the town center. This location proved very convenient for exploring the town.
