street noise delayed check-in
the staff seemed helpful, and the location allowed for walking to restaurants.
The street-facing rooms suffer from noise. Sleep proved difficult. patrons outside the pub late on weekend nights created disturbances. i also had to wait far too long to check in.

excellent recent room upgrade

friendly staff cosy pub
The staff were very friendly. rooms were recently renovated. it was clean. The bathroom was particularly lovely. we had dinner in the pub one evening, it seemed very cosy. the food portions were very generous. i received about four chicken breasts with my roast! the breakfast was also very nice.
The fire alarm activated early one morning. it caused broken sleep. There was no explanation regarding the cause of the alarm. i found this very disruptive.
