I stayed in a Superior Double Room . The location was great. It was a short walk from the train station (very convenient!).
The room did not have a chest of drawers.

Acceptable Stay with Noted Issues
non-functional extractor fan poor water pressure
The location proved acceptable.
The lack of cleanliness in the bathroom was noticeable. There was a build-up of dirt and the extractor fan did not function (making the room humid after showers). The water pressure was also notably poor.

solid stay in city center
convenient location cozy pub helpful staff
i came for a short trip and found some great things. the location proved very convenient. i enjoyed the cozy pub downstairs with a varied menu.. it offered many options. staff were helpful throughout my stay.
the absence of an elevator made carrying luggage to the upper floors a bit challenging. i had to manage my heavy suitcase up the stairs. it was a bit tiring after a long day.
