10/10 Excellent
"We have stayed here before and will do again. It is very reasonably priced for a city centre hotel and, although the rooms are a bit dated, they are clean and perfectly adequate for a night or two. The reception staff are always welcoming, friendly and helpful and we enjoy being able to walk to the esplanade in just a few minutes."
