The hotel is right in the heart of the town, making it convenient for the festival we were attending, but it was too close to noisy pubs in the town center on a Saturday night. The rooms were on the upper level and had a well-fitted bathroom with all facilities, which was great. The service was top-notch, with very helpful staff and excellent service including room service, housekeeping, and a welcome drink. The location was central, although the regular chimes from the nearby church bell could be disturbing. Dining included porridge and sandwiches, but the noise from the nearby pubs affected the overall experience. The facilities were satisfactory, and the value for money was reasonable, although the noisy town center detracted from the tranquility of the stay.
