8/10 Good
"Perfect location for the train station, as I could leave my luggage there on date of departure, then collect it on the way to the train station. Very basic hotel, lots of signs of aging. Towels were very old and thin. No iron in room. One uncomfortable chair in room! Got it for a deal on a cheap night so was worth it for what I paid but I wouldnโ€™t have liked to pay more for it."
