The staff was very friendly! i especially appreciated alison at the front desk. She was so talkative and cute. the location is great because it is on a central street. the room had a proper kettle and was generously stocked with coffees and teas.
the hotel seems outdated and tired. the room smelled musty, and i noticed mould on the wall and around the bathroom tiles. the double glazing didn't work well, so street noise kept me awake.

The location is close to the main train station. The hotel is also within easy walking distance of local attractions. The owner was friendly and helpful, I am grateful for such a warm welcome.
The flow of water from the basin was somewhat weak. This made filling the kettle a little difficult.
