Good Room, Friendly Folks

spacious roombreakfast choicesfriendly staff
I found the room spacious plus recently refurbished. Breakfast had good choices, you could build your own, or choose one of two fixed options. The staff were friendly, they helped me get to my course when I couldn't get a taxi.
The bed frame squeaked loudly. It happened every time I moved.

breakfast was great. i could choose a fixed breakfast or create my own meal. the room i stayed in was comfy and clean. it was above the bar, and i could hear faint voices sometimes. the hotel does have a pub on the ground floor and food service for breakfast, lunch, and dinner but not on sunday.
the room got very hot. there was no fan available. the street noise was loud, so i couldn't keep the window open.
