Staff were friendly.

The room had only one chair. Photos online showed a sofa. There was a lot of noise from the road. A loose manhole cover created noise each time a car drove over it.

The room was very clean and spacious. The ensuite was modern and super clean.

The room faced the street, so street noise at night was disruptive. I would have liked a quieter location away from the constant traffic.
