Satisfactory Central Stay

The building displayed many grade one protected original features. I was able to walk to parking about five minutes away. The staff was friendly when I made requests of them. Breakfast was plentiful. I liked its buffet.

The room had no water glass. The shower knob proved difficult. It was hard to turn it to switch it off.

The location provided easy access to attractions. My room was very clean. Breakfast was also really good. I enjoyed the history attached to the building!

My room photos and the actual rooms were not alike. The rooms were too old. I found them too small, and somewhat run down. I think they use modern photos to mislead.
