a decent stay overall

nice bar clean room powerful shower thin wall reception access staff interruption

The location proved quite convenient. i found a nice bar area, a real bonus for evening relaxation! the room was clean and the bathroom included a powerful shower. I really enjoyed that.

i noticed the walls seemed quite thin, i could hear neighbours talking, i must say. getting to reception felt a bit convoluted. i had to navigate a lift then stairs before finding it, a minor inconvenience with luggage. a staff member walked into my room the morning of checkout while i was still asleep. this occurred despite requesting a late checkout, quite disruptive.

the room had everything i needed.

My neighbor played the tv loudly until 2 am. the mattresses felt old, i think rotating them would help. there were many marks on the walls and some fluid stains in the bathroom. This was not so good.

convenient stay

excellent location friendly staff adequately sized room convenient amenities

the location is advantageous due to its proximity to various amenities, i found a supermarket across the road, alongside several takeaways. the train station is also just a few minutes walk away. the room was adequately sized, i also noted the friendly staff. a nice looking bar was available.

the room felt a bit dated, it was still adequate. i noticed a faint smell of stale smoke, but i wasn't quite sure what it was. the price seemed a little high for what i got.

The room was very clean, and I found all the facilities to be of a high standard. It included all advertised items, reassuring. The value for money was really good for the room size and provided amenities.

The hotel is in an unusual building. The stairwells and lifts have a different feel from the reception area.
