Functional but very noisy as described in previous reviews. This is not the hotels fault but people screaming at 4 in the morning is something that perhaps need to be raised with the surrounding businesses and council.

In general areas carpets were filthy and very worn. Staff seemed inexperienced and the manager was extremely rude when trying to sort out a problem.
