Great location. Staff were friendly. However the room smelt too much of detergent and because of the location it was quite noisy from the nearby bars until the early hours of Sunday morning

Although the hotel itself is very nice, the noise from the street outside was terrible. We stayed on a Friday night and could hear noise from the bars, people out on the street shouting/swearing. This went on until 4am so we had very little sleep (we were on the 5th floor). When I told the receptionist when we checked out she said it was because it’s a city centre on a Friday night so is to be expected!
