The location is really good. Friendly staff are available.
The room doors rattled a lot when someone was in the corridor. This needs fixed. Heat in the room was also a problem. I needed to get this sorted.

I appreciate the central location. It made transport easy. The room featured tea and coffee facilities. a kettle. Shower pressure was excellent, and the hot water supply met expectations. Staff demonstrated politeness and willingness to assist guests.
There wasn't a tv guide you scroll down so you could choose what you wanted. Instead you pick a number and hope for the best. I did not enjoy this system.
