When originally booking this hotel I visited their website where the location looked trendy, modern, well-priced and comfortable.
When we arrived we were a bit shocked. The building is old and rambling. We had to go up 4 flights of stairs to get to room 10 (passing room 24) on the way. Our first room was not suitable for our family and they very nicely changed rooms. Both rooms were dingy, worn down and drafty. Not at all the posh, modern room pictured on their website.
We were only meant to spend one night so we decided after a long drive this was better than searching an unfamiliar city.
I will say we were very thankful that we were on the top floor because we were over the pub and they had live music - but we weren't disturbed at all.
The included breakfast was good and well portioned, but not served in the breakfast room but in the pub on bar stools (a bit hard for our toddler).
It's in a shabbier part of town and surrounded by youth hostels.
We were safe, dry, warm, and well-fed. The staff was very friendly and outgoing. I don't think I would return or recommend for anyone other than budget travellers without kids.
