Comfortable and clean and convenient for transport links and central and the deal I had was good value. Check in was a little frustrating as I had checked in on line as requested but it still took about 10 minutes before I received my key.

We had sent in a request with online check-in, which we had confirmed on the day of arriving (where we had confirmation that it was done for us), that our two rooms needed to be near each other, however once we came to collect our room keys, they had us on separate floors. It took some time to sort, but the staff at the desk eventually managed to sort this for us so that we could get into our rooms. Apart from this, we had a nice stay and we would return.
