Basic hotel but outstanding as such. Lovely breakfast included- cooked full English and continental - grab bags available if you want take breakfast out. Room clean , beds comfy. Can be a little noisy late on an evening due to the nightclubs surrounding the area of hotel- but not too bothersome. Good location to bus routes and several places walkable. Plenty of dining options. Would definately recommend .
