Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.

    Staff were very friendly and the hotel is in a great location next to the canal. It's a short walk along the canal and up past the lock keepers arms and straight down a high street right into the city centre. We parked the car in the hotel car park which was safe and secure. Breakfast was buffet style and was very nice and plenty of everything.

    The property was in a great location, within walking distance to the city centre. Check in was easy and had a perfect (free) parking spot on the street outside. Was cheap and cheerful, ideal for our one night stay.

    Stylish property very clean and comfortable. Communication from the owners 10/10 , checked we had arrived safely and to see if there was anything we needed also a text after we had left to thank us for looking after the property and hope we had had a lovely time. Great location within walking distance of the town centre and tourist attractions .

    .The hotel is part of the pub, so the check-in is at the bar side but works well. The parking facilities are good and felt safe. Every member of staff was very pleasant and helpful. The pub is large and has a good atmosphere and selection of food and drink and there were a few offers on, particularly on the breakfasts. The room was the cheapest available at the time. It was quiet and the bedroom and bathroom were clean and spacious. The bed was comfortable. The night time key and entrance was very helpful.

    The staff were friendly and helpful. Great location for access to everything. Good to have use of a washer and dryer, and I loved having a fridge and being able to prepare meals in the evenings. Comfortable and spacious room. Overall I felt it was a safe and comfortable stay at a budget price. Definitely a good choice if you're staying more than a couple of days. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff.
