The room was clean, spacious and the bed was comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful and had a lot of local information. It was great to have a kitchen, which had everything you need, to make your own food. Very easy transport links (bus stop right outside the hotel) and a good location; very close to bars, restaurants and shops. Very cheap accommodation, very good value for money - I would highly recommend this hotel.

Corridor spaces need a lot of cleaning. A good thorough clean is going to be easier to maintain for housekeeping staff and then be more pleasant for guests. However the room it self was great.
