The rooms were ok, but have obviously been refurbished with small items not finished nicely. Room was facing the street and the blinds on the window did not not block out the light and there were no curtains.. it was quite noisy. Bathroom was nice but shower didn't get hot all weekend. The lady who tended to us for breakfast was lovely and friendly and our breakfast was fantastic. It must be noted this hotel is Halaal which was not stated, not a problem but some guests were upset at the offerings. Staffing was minimal, and reception very rarely manned in case of problems or queries.

The room needs curtains as the security lights shine through the blinds all night.Also the heating cannit switch off so its very hot and the road is too noisy to have the window open. Otherwise very good value
