Decent hotel

Decent hotel in a nice quiet area of the city. Hotel front and reception area is lovely, staff were friendly and helpful throughout stay. Unfortunately our room was very small and had hardly any storage, not good for a couple travelling with suitcases. The hotel seems more suited to business trips for one or two nights.
