Staff were lovely! Friendly and helpful. Breakfast was standard buffet but tasted delicious and we constantly replenished. Hotel was standard cheap and cheerful - satisfactory for a 2 night stay to explore Leeds and a day trip over to York.

Small car park for the size of the hotel, which would be an issue when the hotel is close to capacity. Front desk staff were polite and efficient in dealing with customers and eager to assist with queries. Paying for parking is done on a large screen next to reception and is easy to use and the discount code issued by the hotel takes the sting out of what the full price would be. Our room (504) was adequate for our needs and our expectations were not unrealistic for a cheap budget hotel. The breakfast was good, however the selection is not extensive.

The staff were really friendly and helpful. The room was lovely and clean. Breakfast was nice, although it was a bit of a chaotic free for all when it came for seating. My only complaint was there was not a lot of disabled parking, and the car park was small.

The hotel is located nicely near the city centre. Big let down was the constant traffic noise you could hear all night. You might as well slept on the main road it was that noisy.
