Pros:

Just the location and the space outside was really good to sit, the room was clean too.

Cons:

The breakfast was really weak, I don’t know why some people saying the breakfast was good, perhaps the didn’t went to nice hotels, also the window couldn’t be opened, which made the room weather terrible and hard to breathe.

Cold loud dated
Pros:

Quietness in the bar area

Cons:

Noisy neighbours as there was a very thin door between us we heard all the conversation from very early in the morning (room 100)
Room was cold at night had to use blankets in the cupboard.
Room was massive good view of the street. Out dated decor could do with a revamp.
