We booked this hotel for its central location and it was ideal. The hotel staff were very nice and so was the cooked breakfast we had. The room we had was very small and not a very comfortable bed also the decor could use an update but it was very clean but wouldnt rate it a four star More

Couldn't use restaurant because they were hosting Americans that they could easily rip off! So even though I had booked over a week earlier upon arrival I was told I couldn't use it. Shower was a joke and I was made to walk into the public bar to buy two small bottles of water and charged £4 for the privilege!!... More

The room was a bit dingy and dark looking with a view of the backs of some apartment buildings. Not attractive at all. I do not understand why the hotels don't update their seperate hot and cold faucets? I don't for a second believe they bleach those sinks out each day that it would be hygenic to plug it to... More

Stayed here for 1 night in April. It's a decent enough hotel, handy for the city centre. Breakfast was good quality. The staff all helpful and friendly. They have free wifi which is handy as I got no 3G on O2 in the room. A bit inflexible on getting into a room before 3pm. Zero rooms available before then, and... More
