    quiet location
    poor lighting
    inadequate signage

    Quiet convenient location, ample secure parking, unique courtyard layout

    Room interiors could use a refresh!!! Lighting levels need improvement, and the signage for locating the hotel is inadequate!!! Basic amenities, such as shower facilities, have room for improvements!!!

    comfy room
    welcoming atmosphere
    basic amenities
    no on-site dining
    no breakfast

    With a pleasant cost of just over £68 for a twin room, the stay was a comfortable stopover. The en-suite room provided a lovely morning shower, and the location is perfect, just a five-minute walk to a great Chinese restaurant. While there were no dining options on-site, the welcoming atmosphere made up for it. basic amenities and a lack of breakfast could be improved.

    our celebration anniversary at the penny farthing exceeded expectations. the staff were attentive, and we enjoyed a large, comfortable double room with a lovely bathroom. breakfast options included freshly made pastries and quality coffee, making for a pleasant morning.

    good service but disappointing room condition

    The staff were accommodating and tried their best to assist during our stay. The breakfast options were decent and the location offered easy access to local sites.

    The room condition left much to be desired.

    comfy bed
    dim lighting
    room brightness

    Loved the location right in the city center! Easy access to shops and eateries. The room could’ve been brighter, but the comfy bed made up for it. 😊
