Never again
Pros:

Nothing

Cons:

Peeling paint from ceiling in room and above shower, poor signal for normal television (unwatchable), broken remote, not enough sockets, smoke alarm at 4 am for no reason (staff attended - told maintenance would come), awful Guinness in a plastic pot, poor building maintenance throughout, having to pay 12.50 for breakfast and use coffee sachets that are supplied to the rooms (no machine/fresh coffee), one tiny lift for a huge building so had to use stairs

Good price. It's a busy budget hotel. Full of families. I got there late so no queues at reception.. Didn't eat there. Just a good hotel at a good price.

Cons:

Plastic kettle. Front of hotel traffic, run the gauntlet of taxis dropping off and picking up.Food in evening looked excellent but have to order before 6 .Don't seem to be later possibilities.
