Best avoided.

Liked: This is a cheap hotel - so I shouldn’t expect much. But, a rusty old waste paper bin, noisy radiator that kept me awake all night, screaming toilet, tired and generally out dated, hardly any staff, terrible “continental” breakfast. Never again!

The hotel suited my needs...

Liked: The location is very central, just a 10/15 minute walk to the train station. The price is reasonable.
