Great bar restaurant downstairs. I was staying alone but was made to feel very welcome and looked after by the staff. For the price, I thought the room was great. Incredible location only 10 minute walk from the station. And the continental breakfast in the morning was perfect. Can’t really complain at all. Thank you guys it was brilliant.

Worst hotel I have ever stayed in, from poor service to feeling very unsafe to not being able to use the shower as I felt I would be dirtier leaving then getting in it! The whole experience has left me feeling very uncomfortable. Not only did I feel totally unsafe the rooms have not sound proofing meaning the party in the room next door felt like it was happening in my room an how convenient that when the dance class that was taking place right under my room that finished around Eleven - the room next door decided to carry on the party… management visited the room but nothing changed - it went quiet for a while but they were not deterred and started the party again at 5am! Absolutely terrible experience from beginning to end! DO NOT STAY THERE!!
