Pros:

Nice hotel, good location and convenient parking nearby. Lovely cafe in reception also.

Cons:

We were required to provide copies of ID on check in and we were unaware of this until arrival at the reception. Luckily we had one form of ID (drivers license) on us which was accepted.

Pros:

Good location, close to Aircoach stop to airport, trams. Good bar, cafe. Responsive staff.

Cons:

The shower was in a bath tub and the shower screen hindered getting out safely. Perhaps a grab rail would help with the large step.
