Generally ok. The parking is quite tight and the room service was hit and miss, we have service where they clean and tidied but didnt provide additional soap or washing items. We did ask for it and got it but strange that it wasnt topped up every night. Unfortunately the spa is a complete let down, in the process of filling up the spa the hot water runs out so it isnt possible to fill the spa with hot water and there is no heater function for the spa. Once the hot water runs out, you are stuck having to shower with cold water as there is no hot water left and to top it off the clog would allow water to get through so you generally dont have a good bath either way.

9.6/10 Exceptional! (479 reviews)
This was a comfortable place to stay with pleasant older style character run by friendly and helpful people. It would have been good to have contact a bit earlier about how to check in but that may have been at least partly my fault in that I only made contact the day before I arrived. It was clean, comfortable and secure. There was some street noise but that is to be expected in a central location. The shower in my room made a screeching noise and seemed to take a long time for the water to heat up and I gave up on it. It was quite expensive for a room in a shared house, albeit a pleasant and convenient one.
