Bathroom was very small, bed and pillows were really comfortable. I didn’t have time for breakfast. There was a lot of noise from trolleys and floors above, not very sound proof."

"The hotel was so in need of a little tlc. The room, superior twin was fine, recently refurbished, clean and comfy bed. Bathroom needed updating, but ok.The real issue was no means of fresh air, as windows were fixed shut and no other means of ventilation. The lift was appalling. Parking was ok and easily accessible. Outside painting of front especially entrance area would be a wise investment."
