Nice hotel
Lovely hotel , nice friendly staff, nice breakfast choice and nice, clean room. Nice hotel cat too! Only thing I would say is the hotel is not great for people with accessibility difficulties due to the amount of stairs and no lift.

Wonderful place.
My wife and I have stayed here before and we love it. It’s far enough from the city centre where it’s quiet but close enough so that it’s a twenty minute bus ride into the city. The staff are absolutely lovely and the rooms are very clean and comfortable. Absolutely would stay here again.

The building and space was as advertised. Service was slow and unable to serve cocktails in the advertised bar in the hotel. I stayed two nights and this hotel was transitioning from being owned by Best Western to privately owned during my stay which may have contributed to the limited service ability.
