My stay here was a good experience, the room was clean and the bed was comfortable. They offered a kettle and tea options plus snacks in the lobby area. The train station was easily accessible, we booked because it was right across the street from the Eurostar train station. There are restaurants and mini marts close to the hotel which made our trip smoother.
