Midweek breat.

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.

Weekend for Two

Stayed for two nights over a weekend. Couldn't fault the staff they were very friendly and helpful. The room was adequate, bed comfortable and had a small shower room/toilet which needed a bit of TLC. Room had everything necessary for a short stay i.e. ironing board and iron, hairdryer, small fan which was a godsend as our room was in full sun all day. We were on the third floor, so lots and lots of stairs (no lift, but we did know that before booking), so not for you if you have any mobility issues. Probably wouldn't stay again, due to this but all in all, not a bad stay.
