Such a pleasure to stay there for the weekend. The service is very friendly. The place is beautiful, clean and tidy. It’s perfectly located at 10 min walk to the Temple area for the Pubs in the evening and 5 min to the Spire which is the center of the city with all the stores, bus stations and accommodations. The hotel is away from the most noisy part of the city which make it quiet at night. The breakfast is delicious and generous. I will go back for sure on my next trip.

It’s a small lodge close to shops and restaurants. Room is clean and spacious. It has an old-day feel. The only problem is the bathroom - there is no ventilation so it was moist and didn’t dry up at all. The staff was ok, I asked them to order a taxi, they never did.
