PATRICIA

Liked: Staff & service
Staff are pleasant. A local racist drunk appear to frequent the hotel and cause harassment. Staff ill-equipped to address drunken behaviour. Limited breakfast options especially for alternative milk and vegetarian/vegans. Local infrastructure work does cause noise but with appropriate times. A fair distance from the station.

The hotel is fine, but lots of work going on in the original bus station.. The only negative was mattress was too soft, and only felt firm because of the wood base. Hot breakfast limited if you don't/can't eat pork sausages and bacon
