Excellent Stay near the Town Centre

great location comfortable bed
The hotel has a great location near the town centre. The staff were really good. I also appreciated the good offers on drinks (a nice touch!). The room was well laid out with a large, comfortable bed.
The room was not sparklingly clean. I noticed dust on shelves and some minor damp patches on the ceiling.
