If all you need is a clean room and comfortable bed with en suite this is fine. Close to railway station so no taxis needed. Everything in walking distance and plenty of choice for food nearby.

Good value, strange hotel

Simply put, this is a value for money hotel. Great location for trains, prison and centre and the staff are friendly. A few strange quirks make it unique but may put people off. Entering and exiting through the pub, a very narrow staircase and the shower/bathroom are not suited for larger proportioned guests.
