The hotel is located along the river, close to a beautiful park that provides easy access to the city. Despite having rooms with some drawbacks like bare plaster walls, the provided hot water bottle adds a cozy touch. However, the lack of a bathroom or sink could be inconvenient. The small cafe next door is a nice touch, and the proximity to many tourist attractions is a definite plus.

I had a pleasant stay at this hotel. The room had good lighting throughout but could use improvement above the bed. All the basics were easily accessible. The service was satisfactory, offering room service, attentive housekeeping, a nice welcome drink, and pet amenities. The location was ideal, with many tourist attractions within a short distance, situated above a cozy pub and close to a beautiful park that provides easy access to the city. The dining experience was decent, though not included, with highlights like the amazing gluten-free bread. The facilities were adequate, providing an overall comfortable stay.

I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The room had an excellent continental breakfast, and the bed was super comfy, all in a modern Retro style. However, not having a bathroom or even a sink was a downside.

The hotel is conveniently located along the river, above a cozy pub, making it a great spot for exploring the nearby tourist attractions. The rooms could use improvement, especially the smelly toilet, but they have all the basics you need. The service was decent, though some room amenities like room service and pet amenities were lacking. The dining experience was mixed, with pleasant food served in the pub but underwhelming service at No30. Overall, it's a good value for money choice with some room for enhancement.
