We come regularly due to location for appointments with hospital. Good size rooms, comfortable beds. Unfortunately we were inundated with construction noise from the above resident renovation floors through out our stay. Reception staff said that they were not informed either but was unable to change rooms due to being busy. Apart from that, good quality hotel for the price.

Friendly reception, clean and spacious room. I didn't realise they were renovating, but there was no noticable noise. The only negative was no cups for beverages and I was supplied with paper cups when I asked for one - and only single use plastic cups for water.
