Noisy

Website tells you to download app for room key, but staff told us it doesn’t work, so an extra, unnecessary step. Original room’s thermostat wasn’t working, so the staff were helpful in quickly moving us to another room. They were very accommodating throughout the stay. HOWEVER, this place was quite noisy because the restaurant had a door the banged whenever any worker went in/out, which was frequent. Additionally, the next room over came back with a group of people and cranked up music at midnight. The staff were quick to respond to our complaint, but the large group was left to stay in the room, which was still loud and disruptive for the following few hours. I hesitated to book given the environment surrounding this spot, but went off the good reviews. While staff was great, the surrounding noise is something to consider when booking, especially on a weekend.

Loved this Hotel.

Really friendly staff, our waitress,Jaz, was the best! The room was fantastic, super clean. The bed and pillows were very comfortable. The deep soaking bath was really great and there were enough toiletries to last for much longer than our stay. Air con and heating was easy to set and with the smart TV we could cast Netflix and watch a film before bed. The food in the resturaunt was delicious, service was quick and we were happy to eat there both nights of our stay. We didn't want to leave and would go again without hesitation.

Early days for this hotel when I visited, only recently opened. However, loved the restaurant & room. Parking arrangements could do with a better explanation but could not fault my stay.

Some of the rooms are directly onto the street so can be noisy in the evening. Breakfast wasn’t included and was quite expensive for what was on offer. That said, the room was lovely, the staff excellent, and it was really convenient being in the centre of town.
