Worn but good comfort and value

Check-in was friendly and efficient.I found my room easily. It was very clean and tidy and in fact I think the sheets were brand-new. The bed was very comfortable and a small easy chair was also welcome. The room itself is rather old fashioned with dark woods But is functional. My major frustration was that there were no power outputs by the bedside tables. The value for money was reasonable for a single night stay.

This is the kind of hotel you stay in and think it’s time to start paying a bit more for hotels. While you get what you pay for, this hotel is not worth what they’re charging. The staff are great and very helpful but they”re being let down by a scruffy, overpriced and occasionally smelly environment.
