Disliked: Cleanliness
The check in is within a pub setting. It was very noisy downstairs and quite off putting to a single parent with child. The room itself was older style and somewhat sufficient for a one night stay. TH and air con worked. Weird set up with shared bathrooms and showers outside but sink inside room. No soundproofing at all so the noise from the city starts at 6 am. Blinds that don’t keep light out. Bed was clean but only 3 pillows. A sufficient but not enjoyable stay

Small table with two chairs
Small bar fridge, sink, TV.

Clean and spacious room, with everything you could need. Shared facilities were spotless throughout the stay. And despite there being a bar on the ground floor, I was never disturbed by the noise.

For the most part, the room was clean. Bathroom hot water pressure was low so it took a while for hot water to start but this was posted in plain site. Not ideal if you wanted a quick shower and it wasted a lot of water.
