"Great family hotel ran by friendly staff. Amenities were family oriented with puzzles and pool room. Swimming Pool idea L for spending an hour or so before mealtime.

"Good budget option. Small rooms with basic amenities but spotlessly clean. Very comfy bed. More hangers would be better but perhaps you can get these if requested. A lot of noise in the rooms overlooking the street, to be expected due to central location. Reasonable value. Would stay again providing it was reasonable rate."
