Really great stay
Staff were nice and the room was spacious and neat, bathroom was also neat. The reception area was really nice. The door handle/lock needs a little sorting out but overall I’d say I had a really great stay and would be going back.

Convenient location and comfortable
Very petite accommodation with a small bathroom and shower but water pressure was good. Bed was comfortable and the noise in the hallways died down early enough.
