Excellent Breakfast and Convenient Parking

easy accesshot breakfastfriendly service
I found parking behind the building easy to access. The breakfast offered a self-serve counter stocked with cereals and fruit. A hot breakfast was available to order and the service was prompt and friendly. I enjoyed it very much.
The cancellation policy felt somewhat inflexible when unforeseen circumstances arose.

9/10
Staff members were helpful . They swapped my room so I could have a bath. I appreciated the friendly and quick service I received each morning.
Location

The building stood a 15-20 minute walk from the town centre. Blackweir Fields stood very close to the accommodation. I found its location suitable for accessing nearby attractions.
Facilities

Free parking existed. This rare amenity in city hotels really helped me. The hotel featured period features and high ceilings that offered an open feel.
Rooms
