Fantastic location, especially for a solo traveller! The staff were lovely, room was clean and shower was great! It was exceptionally outdated, the tv didn’t work well and the plug sockets were extensions rather than actual plug sockets. The decor was also very dated. The room was in huge contrast to reception

1. Heating didn’t seem to work in the room. 2. Water level in toilet bowl was unusually high leaving a risk of overflowing. 3. Broken tiles on bathroom floor which could’ve led to cuts or injury. 4. Young men at reception were overly familiar and cheeky. 5. No pre-guidance regarding concierge charge for leaving luggage.
