We liked the convenience of being near the centre of the town. The price reflected that the hotel is undergoing refurbishment. We did not like not being told where the kitchen was, so didnt find the microwave or fridge etc . The corridor is poorly lit so we didnt see it until the morning we left. It was a bit noisy, with train, main road traffic, and fire sirens. but once we were asleep it didnt bother us.

This property was clean and had everything I could need, behind a locked door. The only problem with it was I felt like I was in a resident evil movie. Would I stay again ? Yes I would

I read previous stay reviews and the hotel management responses warning that you get what you pay for with this price — but the property and room I had was not fit for adage inhabitstion — right down to the cigarette burns on the bed cover and windows that did not close - small space heater - extreme dirty room and closet — lights did not work in the reading room - left after one night - sorry place was just not acceptable at any cost

Pretty nice overall. Lovely front desk guy, felt safe at the hotel. Just had trouble with being able to lock our door which was a little scary.
