Wonderful

Our second time in this hotel, this time on the top floor. Not suitable for disabled due to number of stairs and no lift but not an issue for us. Lush shower, way comfy bed, quiet on a friday night and ideally situated. Perfect for our requirements
Very reasonably priced. Rooms comparable with top-end hotels but far cheaper. Very comfortable bed. High-quality bedding. Quiet

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Two flights of dark stairs and no lift. Good room but no extras. Good continental breakfast with full cooked breakfast paid alternative. Difficult to justify three-star status.

Entirely my fault that I didn’t spot on the Hotel details that this is NO LIFT. A member of staff did offer to help with the luggage though.
The room No 42 looks out over the back of the hotel, pathway, carpark and a view of a church spire.
The room was clean but tired. Paint peeling, a large stain on the carpet by the desk. The show leaks onto the floor. The rainshower head sprays everywhere. The toilet seat needs changing.The sink takes forever to drain.
The towels were excellent, fluffy and pure white. The bedsheets were spotless and of a decent quality.
The staff were unobtrusive but helpful.
Its main attraction is the location. 2 minutes into town
This is a nice hotel in a great location. Stayed two nights. Very quiet and comfortable night’s sleep. Our only criticism is that there was no room to store clothes/belongings apart from a very narrow wardrobe. No drawers or shelves to put things on so other than hanging a couple of shirts everything else had to stay in the case. There was a small foldaway luggage rack to put your case on but this was fairly inadequate for even a small weekend case. A small drawer/shelf unit would have solved the problem. We would stay again though for one or two nights.
The hotel was amazing and very clean. For the price the room was incredible and the staff were great and very friendly with great local recommendations
Friendly service, parking very limited however there is a public car park across the road. Rooms on the small side. Our air conditioning leaked all night and went all over the kettle and coffee machine so couldn’t have a drink in the morning. Was given a free coffee in the cafe downstairs.
