Central location

George 8.0

The room was very spacious and clean although a little dated. The beds were comfortable. It was good to have tea and coffee making facilities in the room alongside a couple of bottle of water. The location in the city centre was good as well as having an entrance to the hotel separate from the pub. Breakfast was great with a much wider choice of options than I'd anticipated.
