Good value
Good value, clean room with good power shower. Good selection of tea and coffee. Manager very friendly and good customer service. We ate in the pub and the food was fine not excellent.
Jennifer, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

The location is lovely as you can walk along the canal. However, the room was very warm with no way to adjust the temperature. A fan was provided at bedside. The toilet was running when I first entered and I couldn’t get it to stop. Front desk clerk was very nice and helped me upstairs with luggage as there is no elevator. The restaurant was too busy for good service. Food was mediocre.
