Our stay was remarkably good. The staff were helpful, friendly and unassuming. Our standard room was comfortable and reasonably sized and had all the right facilities. The ensuite well up to standard too. Dressing gowns, slippers, good toiletries,...

The restaurant, Saltfish, was excellent. They had a rhubarb pavlova that quite simply stunned me. Breakfast was suitable and the tea, British. The host/owner offered very helpful suggestions on getting around and things to visit--Raby Cadtle. GO!

Great location - 10 minutes walk from station and very close to town center. Also in a relatively quiet part of the city. The room was large and clean and well appointed. It had a night light in the bathroom for safety. THANK YOU!
