Pros:

Wifi was aanwezig en genoeg ruimte in de kamer

Cons:

Je kon niet streamen ook al was er aangegeven dat het wel kon en het was heel gehorig.
Ook zou een klein koelkastje wel handig zijn.

Cons:

Breakfast wasn't good.

Absolutely fine for 1 night after a gig. Staff were very lovely and helpful. It’s cheap for a reason
Pros:

Prefect location.
it’s a budget hotel and cheap. Was fine for 1 night after going to a gig.

Cons:

Very dated and would say it needed a revamp (especially bathrooms) but nothing dirty.
Traffic can be loud but can’t expect any less in a city centre- they give out free ear plugs at reception.
