It was ok but they need to run the rooms side of things correctly.
Pros:

The location as it was close to family.

Cons:

Very rarely had my room cleaned and twice I put out the please clean my room and it still wasn't done. I even had to go to the public toilets of the bar to get some toilet paper as nothing was replenished.

Easy location to use as a base, surprisingly quiet.
Pros:

Great location for easy tram access to the city. Surprisingly quiet, although could hear the person in the room upstairs when they came in after midnight. Comfy bed, good sized shower.

Cons:

Not keen on a windowless room. Unfortunately there were no towels or soap in the room on arrival and luckily we chased up that evening and didn't wait until the next morning when no one was around. Also the bathroom sink didn't drain properly. No internet after 10pm so no streaming.
