It’s a fairly depressing budget hotel, which needs some maintenance to be a ‘decent stay’ in my opinion (stained carpets, mildewy bathroom tiling, badly done sealant etc). I’d choose any other budget chain over this one, especially as prices are very similar (too high for this hotel in my opinion) Lovely staff and comfortable bed though

Comfortable Stay

Room was clean and comfortable, one minor gripe was no plug in the sink. Only one lift working, not a big issue at non-peak times but with 9 floors really could do with 2 lifts. Reception advised me to park in the adjacent NCP car par which was half the price of the hotel car park. Didn't have breakfast but had a decent pizza in the evening.

Family room clean- bit dated - toilet flush takes long time to fill back up. Dining area quite dated. Didn’t have breakfast, so can't comment. Surrounding area very nice, the quays had good vibe. Easy walk into the centre. Plenty to do out and about. Would stay again.
