    The location of the hotel is one of the positive points. The building itself is very old as well as furniture so if you like antiques style, the hotel suits your stay. Only very minimum amenities are provided.

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room was clean and comfortable. The location was great. The only negative I have is the curtains - they let so much light in there’s almost no point in having them!

    Loved having a balcony although the weather was poor and there's scaffolding on one side. Staff were all friendly and spoke good English.
