My room had great size! Everything worked well and met expectations. The bed was comfortable and good sized. I loved the iron, the safe, the hanging space, the trouser press and TV. They were all excellent inclusions. The reception staff remained cute, friendly, helpful, and informative throughout my stay.
Sadly, I found the cleanliness lacking in some areas.

the room was clean and tidy. the beds were wonderfully comfy, AND the pillows felt supportive. sufficient tea, coffee, and sugar sachets were available in the room.
The breakfast selection seemed smaller than expected. It lacked variety. the toaster was set at TOO high a temperature. it burnt the bread every time.

I enjoyed the large room I had. A shower was available. Dinner had good quality. Breakfast was well cooked.
The hotel was noisy on Friday evening. A group laughed and shouted. Doors banged at 2.30am. Someone above me sounded like they moved house at 5.00am. This continued until about 6am. I could not sleep properly.
