Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The location was convenient, close to the Railroad station, shopping, dining and pubs. The room was small and very tight. The bathroom is not an en suite but with the sink in the room with a door for the toilet and a door for the shower. There is very little privacy so if you are sharing the room you better like the other person. The bed was comfortable with nice linen and the room was very clean.

The room was spotless, simple and perfect for our one night stay. Lovely convenience shop along with restaurant in the lobby, which we didn't try, but so nice it was there. Good experience.

Disliked: Room comfort

Cheap, convenient, but low on amenities

The room was fine to sleep in. There's no real "bathroom" only a closet with a toilet and another closet with a shower. It means the room can be smaller. There's no ventilation for the toilet closet. That could be embarassing if you had 2 people in the room. The bar area was not staffed at convenient times. I had laundry service, and it was ridiculously over priced. The cost to launder a few shirts was more than the price of buying the shirts.

Overall the place is great. Parking is an issue, and whilst they gave us a "discounted" parking area which is a 10 min walk away, the discount never worked. Location is pretty good, place is clean and the room serves it purpose.

Disliked: Staff & service
There were few staff. The ones that were there, were very nice. Check-in and out was by tablet. Not very welcoming. Small room and automatic lighting that took on a life of its own. Not a four-star hotel.

Nice base for business trip

Clean room with a decent bed (i had the king not the queen bed tho) - the shower and toilet were clean but had peeling paint on the ceiling. The water pressure was also poor. The bar was nice and the location is pretty good.
