Loved the location, so close to everything. Great parking spaces. The room was old, but clean and tidy. The kettle definitely needs replacing as the inside had flaky plastic bits coming off. The tea cups also need replacing as there were dark stains on the bottom and had a leaky tap in the bathroom, minor things. We were not in the room often, but it was a great place to sleep for a couple of nights away and the staff were lovely.
