Rooms on the front facing a busy road are noisy - you need to leave the windonw open for fresh air but then the traffic noise is constant. Could do with better window coverings - the venetian blinds do not block out enough of the street light.

Very clean rooms, the ensuite bathrooms were great. The staff was pretty helpful in providing tour suggestions, and friendly as well.

could be a good idea, to have a coffe machine, just to have coffe even when the restaurant and bar are closed.

Good idea! You can of course make a coffee/tea any time in the self catering kitchen, however, will look at this as a way of enhancing facilities to our guests. Thanks. Ray Chandler GM

This place is fine for a couple of days. It's a bit hard to find because it's located on a street which is known by two names. I had to ask a local if I was on the right street. The room was a nice size and everything seems to run fairly smoothly here.
