The bed was unbelievably comfy, the room was clean and warm and the staff on the bar were a great help and very friendly.
Fantastic room, clean, comfortable, spacious and quiet. Great location, just a short stroll to the city wall and city centre. Owner was very friendly, letting us use the carpark after we checked out. Will definitely visit again
