Great value stay
convenient vending machinefriendly staffhelpful informationsmall room
The games room was a nice addition, especially for families, it included a pool table. A vending machine offered cans of pop, sweets, and crisps for convenience. I also found the staff to be really friendly. They provided helpful information about the hotel facilities. I liked that i could leave my bags before check-in and after check-out.
My room was quite small and the sink lacked a plug. This made some tasks a little difficult. The shower cubicle felt tight, and only one small bath towel was supplied, a larger one would be better.

The bed was quite hard. It made sleeping difficult. noise from outside kept me awake late into the night (i think it was from other hotels or maybe traffic). the shower head also really needed descaling. It felt a bit dirty.

i loved the clean hotel. the host was cute. he was professional and polite. the area of the hotel makes it easy to get to places within walking distance. the location was great for bars and restaurants.
The room was far too small. It felt more like a single room. there was no storage to put clothes, and the bathroom door banged the bed when opened. there were no tea or coffee facilities.
