Second time I have stayed in this hotel situated very centrally in the town. I hope it prospers and can reclaim some of the area on the ground floor which is now vacant but looks as if it once was part of the hotel

Liked: Cleanliness
The hotel has lots of history and is in the perfect location for everything in the city centre. Our room was small, hot and noisy with the window open (front of the hotel above the main entrance). Ask for rooms at the back of the hotel for a quieter night.
