Pleasant place for a weekend break.
The hotel looks a bit run down and the rooms are basic and in need of redecoration. However, every member of staff was helpful and courteous. There was entertainment each evening and the public areas were comfortable. There had clearly been some investment recently as the shower was new and that was great. There is tea and coffee in the room and can be replenished at reception. In all, for the price, this is a pleasant place to stay and it is close to the town.

The hotel staff and maids were very helpful and friendly and ready to assist in any way possible. The condition of hotel is old and needs updating. There was no curtain door and shower curtain was small so i had to put towels outside in order not too get too wet. There was no room service every day...probably trying to save money. I would stay because of location but overall i was disappointed as clearly no money is being spent on the property.

Would highly recommend it
We were staying for one night to attend the theatre. It looks quite run down from the outside. But we were made to feel so welcomed by the lovely lady on reception. The room was clean and ideal for us.

You get what you pay for!
"You get what you pay for" is the perfect adage for this hotel. One night stay in single room. Bit damp, bit musty, so small the bathroom door opened halfway before hitting the bed, ground floor window didn't open. Black mould in shower, and lovely view of the gas cylinders out back. But for £33, the sheets were clean and the bed adequate, and once the loud, live, Sunday "entertainment" had stopped at 10pm and the room on the other side of the paper thin walls had turned off their TV, sleep was found.
