Convenient for Old Town

Pros: Location and cleanliness of room Cons: Breakfast was very poor. Ordered a full English but had no bacon. I pointed it out and was told they would get some. I then realised the sausage was veggie so had the wrong breakfast. I spoke to the waiter who apologised and offered to get a meat sausage. 5 mins later one piece (not 2) of bacon arrived. Egg yolks were all hard and orange juice had run out. Despite that, the stay was still vfm and I would use again.

Very handy location, comfy bed and a nice breakfast

Pros: Great location Small car park, but really handy to have it Friendly staff at check-in and breakfast Cons: Bathroom window painted shut, with no blind, which meant light flooded into the room early Some noise from people talking and smoking in garden below Pub was a bit grubby. Filthy and stained carpets, which didn’t make the bar look that nice. Music was too loud. We went to Wood Street for dinner instead of staying in the bar.
