Convenient location. Very dated. Toilet was dirty when we checked in to our room. The Aircon was set to cold in the middle of winter so we woke up freezing in the middle of the night as the quilts were so thin and didn't keep us warm as we just assumed it would be set to heat. We pre booked breakfast for the next morning, but when we arrived at breakfast we were were questioned several times that nobody had put us on the list for a prebooked breakfast. The breakfast wasn't worth the money as there was very little food in the Bay Marie's and we had to ask for more hot food.

The location was great however our room was on the main road facing a nightclub, so the noise was pretty bad even with double glazing. The breakfast buffet was basic and not enough plates to go round, and food kept running out. The property needs a facelift and major upgrade. Based on the developments around it, it looks like it will be demolished and replaced in the near future as it may not be the best and highest use of the land
