Balanced stay experience

clean roomgood sizecoffee machinecoffee sachetbacon slicesingle sausage

the provided iron met my needs. i arrived early and paid £15 for early check-in. the room was a good size and very clean. i found a lovely coffee machine there and a great shower.

the breakfast should be a la carte , but i received only one slice of bacon. also , i got just one sausage. coffee should not be served in sachets at higher prices , in my opinion. a coffee machine would be better.

good pastriesconstant humming noise

the breakfast was really good (i especially liked the pastries).

My room was located near some sort of machinery. It created a constant humming noise. this made it difficult to relax, and i didn't sleep well. i really think they need to address this issue.

Inconsistent stay. Some issues present.

slow servicehot room

the service felt a bit off . i waited a while at the bar before someone showed up to check me in. the person seemed new to the process. also, the room was on the top floor, not ideal. it got very hot since it was a summer day, and the small windows didn't let in much air.
