The air conditioning did not work in either of our two rooms. That made the entire night terrible. We chose this hotel for that reason. So not good there. The staff were very nice. The breakfast was great too and nice to have. Lastly, the shuttle to the airport made things very convenient.

quiet and comfy, but beware bus transfer cost

Room was clean, quiet and comfy. We didn't need anything more as only staying in order to catch early flight next week. Despite leaving at 430, we were impressed that there was breakfast and drinks available at 4 to eat there or take to the airport. I was a bit shocked by cost of the transfer to and from the airport though. Our coach dropped us at station, and transfer to hotel was £4 each, then same the next morning to get back to the airport. This seemed very expensive for a 5 minute bus journey, and definitely something to bear in mind budget wise. As this was the difference between being cheaper or mosre expensive than a cab from home to airport (which we will do next time).
