"Good hotel, central location, no lift, a little tired and in need of a refresh. Not the height of luxury, but a good hotel bang in the centre. We had a top floor standard room, which was sweltering, no air con, 2 small fans, took 3 hours to get to sleep. 1st and ground floor were far cooler. This alone would put me off staying again during the summer."
