Friendly and clean accomodation
Pros:

Reasonable facilities and service. Room was comfortable and clean

Cons:

Area nearby didnt feel that safe to walk around, may be a concern for solo or vulnerable travelers. No actual issues and buses to city were not far off, but the vibe was the vibe.

We really enjoyed our stay. All Staff were cheerful and helpful. Would stay here again.
Pros:

Breakfast was good. I liked that it was buffet as the Grandkids could choose what they would eat. Kids don't always want the same items or the same amount every day. Hotel is convenient to city center. We would exit main door turn right, walk to traffic lights, cross road, go up a few yards and there was a bus stop on right which brought you into center by City Hall

Cons:

Kids were 11 and 7 sharing the room with us. Even though the kids had no issue with the sofa bed I would have liked if the room had 2 proper double beds but fully understand that putting in and out sofa bed gives rooms more usage.
