Very clean comfortable hotel in quieter end of town, but not too far from main attractions, and 5 mins taxi from railway station. Cost about £5. Our stay was brief (as a flying family visit) so details are also kept brief, but first impressions good. Thought it an ideal choice & good value. We were able to book just the... More

Having read previous reviews I expected more - sadly, I believe, some reviews have been over-generous. Positive - all staff we encountered were courteous and tried to do their best for you. It has a fair location overlooking the Waterways on the North Parade. As advertised I was fortunate enough to have a room with free acess to Wifi. Negative... More

On arrival we had a little hiccup with rooms, but it was all sorted more thatn to my satisfaction and the owners seemd genuinly upset. I had booked a seaview superior double, lovely bright modern and very very clean room. Very comfy bed. Tea and coffee making and you could also request fresh milk if required. Nothing was too much...
