Room was very small and basic for the price. Noise from nightclub over the road went on until 3am. Windows clearly not very sound proof. No phone in room to contact “reception”. Despite check out being at midday, when I returned to my room at 11.45am to collect my things, I had been locked out and had to get my key card reactivated

Fine for one night.
Friendly staff. Comfortable bed. Bathroom so tiny and shower poor volume and warm rather than hot. Carpet looked manky! - but it was reasonably priced and in a great location.
