Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
We wanted a somewhat old-fashioned and traditional experience, but the hotel was a little too old fashioned. Because it was October, the lack of air conditioning wasn’t a problem - but it would be a different story if it was a really hot summer day. There seemed to be ample parking, but both nights that we returned from supper about 8:00pm, the lot was full of vans and there was no where to park. The staff were helpful in my finding on street parking, but it was a very narrow street and I was concerned about my rental car getting side-swiped.

Great stay at the Brookside!

Very restful hotel. Very comfortable, with good atmosphere. Exellent breakfasts. Good location for city access without all the noise of the centre. One small peoblem: the shower in room 19 has a pumped hot water system which swamps the cold water feed. The pressures need balancing, as the shower tends to scald.

Squeaky clean and comfortable!

Really pleased with my stay. My room was squeaky clean and very comfortable. I was welcomed by the proprietor, who was very helpful, as was everyone else that I met. This is a gem of a property that is close enough to be a short walk from the city centre, but away enough to be quiet and relaxing. Definitely recommended!
