Right from the by the time we came back. was welcoming and the room was perfect for what we needed. We were very embarassed because we did not expect the room to be serviced and left it in a shocking mess that was magically tidied.

Comfortable bed and nice bedding. The rest of the room was quite tired and overall smelled of aftershave (?) Not great value for money but fine if you just need a place to sleep.

The property is old, but kept clean. It can be noisy with traffic and the walls are thin. But the location is good with Dan Murphy next door and a great Tavern 5 minutes away on foot. It was a comfortable stay.
