Grafton Guesthouse

Maybe the location; that’s about all.

The room was smaller than it appeared - no big deal though. Hot, the room was overwhelmingly HOT ! So with that, you open the window - try to open the window. It has a devise that allowed you to open the window 3 inches. Probably a good thing because that also allows the traffic sounds into the room. However the staff thought of that, there actually were earplugs on the bedside table! The counter person was “new” and couldn’t authorize a refund. I asked the manager to contact me, of course they have not yet. But they were sure to charge me $201 right away!!

The location was excellent. Rooms very basic but enjoyed my break. Bit noisy outside as it was close to a Public House which stayed opened until early hours of the morning. Good for a break but would not like to stay for a week or two.

Noisy pub next door.

We found the hotel location very central . The room was cosey but do remember to turn on the radiator before you go out.If you want quiet ask for room at back as we were front room and could hear all the life outside from popular pub accross the road.We didnt mind as we were getting the city atmosphere. Continental breakfast was good and tasty.Overall we were happy with everything.

It was in a great location, in a very cool old building. Breakfast at L"Gueuleton was a nice change of pace from typical hotel breakfasts.

I didn't like that there is no actual hotel staff located in the Grafton Guesthouse, and that the building has no elevator. Carrying three suitcases up to our attic room was extremely difficult. We also had to call reception a few times (once when the toilet was not working well, and again to ask for restaurant recommendations) and both times the person at the front desk was not particularly friendly or helpful. Also, the room we stayed in smelled like smoke, even though it was a presumably non-smoking room, and the heater would not turn on.
