Pros:

Personalet var fremragende og utroligt hjælpsomt, endte over i Edinburgh efter en fejl i lufthavnen i Amsterdam og de var fantastiske til at hjælpe mig videre over til hvor jeg skulle være.

Pros:

When I arrived, the reception was quite cold and unhelpful. Unfortunately, the room’s cleanliness was poor—linens weren’t refreshed properly, and towels seemed previously used. The room lacked sufficient hygiene overall. The breakfast was extremely disappointing—basically just eggs and beans, with no variety. Overall, facilities were lacking.

Definitely value for money, friendly staff, comfortable beds but a tad noisy
Pros:

Compared with the other hotels close to the airport, the price here for 3 days was a lot lower.
Bed was Comfortable and the staff very helpful and cheerful.

Cons:

A noisy bathroom extractor that was on every night of the three night stay.
Although not the fault of the hotel staff, the voices of guests leaving in the early hours could be heard clearly from my room, as that of their doors slamming shut as they left.
