Great value for money

The room had everything I needed & was pretty clean. En-suite shower (no bath but I prefer a shower anyway), sink & toilet were clean & in good condition. Kettle with coffee& tea options were fine & the TV had the usual free digital channels. I've paid a lot more for poorer rooms.

Budget room very close to the city centre

Excellent location being only a ten minute walk into the city centre. A very reasonable price too and friendly staff on check in with good communication before we arrived. The only two down sides were that the matresses were not comfortable at all and were two single beds pushed together to make a double. Also, the room was quite light (for us) at night because of the type of blind. Those two things feel quite easy to fix though and other than those issues, it suited us well.
