There is no crockery or cutlery in the rooms, but it can be requested from reception. No lift so if you get a first floor room you have the stairs to contend with with your luggage."

"Suited to what we needed, shame no pool. Bed comfy, shower way too small! Tv great and quiet area with nice river frontage. Building very old an upgrade would be better and worth the charged rate. Must be a high crime area due to windows and doors pretty badly patched up and missing important lock features. A night or two is ok. I wouldn’t recommend family friendly, very close to water and no fencing. "
