Nice hotel overall. The negatives were noise from the street down below. The windows are not soundproof and actually thought they were open due to being able to hear people talking 3 storeys down. The bathroom was very small. Room had some brown stains on wall. Lots of positives though. Staff super freindly. Bed was super comfy. Double bed and bunk bed for extra people. The hotel doubles up as a hostel for homeless. Noce bar. Lovely for younger crowds. Good location in city. Parking nearby at small cost.

The staff were excellent throughout my stay. Polite, friendly and accessible. The bar is pretty big, and inexpensive. I liked the room. It was clean, secure and comfortable. TV has various channels and you can log into your own account with several apps. Pretty quiet, building works nearby (obviously out with the control of the hotel. Two minutes walk from everything you need to access, so you avoid the noise of both day and night time economy. Not expensive, and better than I expected, to be honest. I didn't have breakfast, so can't rate that. I also stayed alone in a family room. Would stay there again.
