Absolutely loved staying here, all the staff were lovely , really friendly and helpful. Our room was clean and had everything we needed, we especially loved sitting in the bay window watching the world go by. The hotel was situated in the perfect place 2 minutes from the river , 7mins from the centre and the street was lovely and quiet at night, we came in the train and it was a 10 minute walk from there so perfect all round. We will definitely return 😀

I like the bed, shower, room setup and decoration. All was good except that the water in the sink went down very slowly and the basement room was a bit chilly and humid. Ok for temperature around 15deg but not sure whether the heater will be good enough in colder weather. The location is convenient but can hear noises on the street though.
