The room condition was too basic. Badly in need of renovation. Mirror in the bathroom was broken. The TV was too old, not a smart TV. Big gaps in the front door letting in cold air.

Clarendon Hotel - Great Manager

Room very ordinary and comfortable and just OK. However, the Manager is very helpful. He is quick to respond to residents' reasonable requests. He will go an extra mile to help out on residents' legitimate requests.

The property is a bit old, but I think that's reflected in the price. If your expectations are not too high, then you won't be disappointed. We like it because it's close to the town centre and restaurants, and is basically pretty comfortable. This is our third or fourth stay and find the staff to be really friendly and welcoming. Will definitely stay again!
