A Tender Stay
early check-in english breakfast train station
The staff were friendly. They helped with early check-in and let me maximize my time and use the car park. A full English breakfast reminded me of a warm hug, and it was very nice. The location is good, very close to the train station and within walking distance.
The room lacked air conditioning, and it was a bit warm. A small fan aided a little.

The room was quiet. It offered comfort. The bathroom had plenty of space, and the shower. I appreciate the convenience of having an iron in the room. It helped me look good.

EXCELLENT stay!
great location friendly staff
The location is GREAT, within walking distance of the city center. Staff members were VERY friendly. I also found maps which was a great idea, I used it throughout my stay to ensure I saw as much as possible.
I was not too happy with the small room! I had to open the window or use a small fan.

The reception area looked very clean and smart. i saw a calm lounge area that looked very inviting, though i did not use it. free parking at the rear was REALLY helpful. I did not have to worry about my car.
My room faced the street and was noisy. I heard traffic and passersby at night. it was hard to sleep well with the constant noise.
