Quaint stay
Around it was good having travelled many miles to be told we were minutes to late to get a meal was really disappointing empty kegs being knocked over in the alley outside our room at 3am rather annoying

Not for me
As soon as I opened the door to my room a strong urine smell hit me. Even with an open window the smell did not go away. The pictures indicated a sink in the room which was not there. The bathrooms were okay and the staff was friendly but very short with explaining the hotel and surroundings. The price of course was cheap but for me not worth it and I would not stay there again.

Great property. Downside was noise from night club below intil 2am Friday and Sat night. To be expected when staying above a pub. Other than that very clean, comfortable and affordable. I would stay there again.
