The hotel location is super convenient and the very helpful staff are the main takeaways for me. Cleanliness was good. The only thing in the downside is the room size which really small.....however for a lone traveller like was not a big issue. The bed was good as I slept really well.....and this is important 🙌.......a downside was the breakfast as an extra with a cost of 20 pounds. Overall a positive experience
