The hotel is on Gloucester Road, at the top, offering spacious and comfortable rooms, with varied dining options in nearby restaurants, cafes, and bars. The staff is friendly and professional, with some confusion in the check-in area. The regular bus routes right outside make the town easily reachable, although a bit far to walk to the center.

My room, while a little on the small side, had a king-size bed but lacked storage space for clothing and shoes. Only 6 hangers provided.
