Fire alarm went off. Intruders entereed our room at 1am in morning....drunk homeless couple asking for alcohol. Informed and alerted reception immediatly. 20 minutes later drunk homeless couple tried to reenter room and every other room on floor. Staff escorted couple out of hotel and we believe police we called. Prank call at 7am. No coffee/hot chocolate in hot drinks machine. No juice or glasses available initially at breakfast.

Comfortable city centre location

The hotel beds are very comfortable although the pillows extremely soft, with no other option. Air con & heating in the room is a great feature, black out curtains and little noise heard in the rooms. The restaurant menu isn't great & the food not up to much, I would avoid eating there if you can. Tried ordering room service but couldn't get anyone to answer the phones. Breakfast is generic hotel buffet with limited healthy options. The in room toiletries are lovely & the pool with steam room are adequate for a hotel.
