      A tired hotel in need of investment and renovation, but good central location.

      This is a conveniently located hotel with an ample car park, but the rooms are poor quality. One saving grace was a very comfy bed. But the bedroom carpet was tired, the bathroom had peeling paint, mold on the window (single glazed), the tap in...More
