The rooms haven’t been updated in some time but that was part of the charm for us. We felt like we had stepped back in time a bit and the chipped paint and wallpaper pealing in the corners was part of the fun as the room was clean and the bed was comfortable

Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The parking was very tight. When I asked at reception about alternatives the young man looked at the CCTV and told me there were "plenty spaces" . I'm actually an Observer with the Institute of Advanced Motorists and there were no spaces without everyone having to reverse out onto the street. But it was his argumentative attitude.
