The location is fantastic, on the high street with so many restaurants and shops on its doorstep. Our room was comfortable bug enough for 3 adults. The only thing I would say is the sofa bed was a bit uncomfortable, you could feel the springs as you turned. And alsi recommend changing the kettles from metal to plastic as my roommate burned herself using it. The breakfast was amazing with such a good selection

Clean & very comfy beds. The complimentary toiletries smelt divine. The breakfast was outstanding, excellent choices. The coffee was a bit weak though. Local area very accessible with numerous dining options. Discounted parking right next door. Not the hotels fault but workmen decided to do some work right outside at 23.30 & had their van running for over 45mins so disturbed me a bit, just unlucky I guess. Would definitely stay again - thank you.
