Pleased I ignored other reviews... Yes, the floors creak and slope but that is the character of an old building. Room was very clean and well presented. Plenty of free parking (register in reception). Some noise from street, but didn't disturb as am a heavy sleeper - if a light sleeper ask for a room not overlooking the city.

We booked a room whilst working in the area, having been before earlier in the year. The room was comfortable enough, but the bathroom was much more modern and updated. Staff were friendly and service was good, but unfortunately, the parking really let the site down. There were lots of contractors and vans blocking various areas, and as the parking is also used as a public car park with JustPark, it made it busier. We had to ask around what time people were going and ask them to swap and block us in, just to get parked, so it was far from ideal. It would have taken less time and effort to drive away from the area and stay at a corporate chain, which is likely what we would do next time, as it removed all convenience this time. If parking is sorted, we would happily return.

The property was in very poor condition. Rooms very, very basic. Showers not working properly. Dirty worn carpets ..wallpaper falling off the wall. Breakfast extremely basic. Dirty entrance to rooms with cigarette buts everywhere. Very poor for expensive price. Will definitely not be returning.

A creaking floor in an old building is quaint but the whole of the floor creaks, bedroom corridor is is too much. The room had a basic clean but the toilet needs descaling. It's not nice to use a toilet like this. The carpets are threadbare to the point our room had a big rip in the carpet which is a trip hazard that I had daily. Staff are pleasant. Parking good. Bar void of people, atmosphere and everything. The biggest bug bare was no evening food. Outside it boasts about food and grill. Reality, no evening dining

I stayed for a week and the best part of the stay was the bed. It was super comfy and got a great nights sleep each night. The bathroom was ok, but the shower was small, so a bit of a squeeze. There was also a step in my room, from the bathroom to the bed part which took a bit of getting use to. The staff I met were very friendly and helpful.
