Good location, but felt like we were stepping 30 years back in time (not in a good way).
Pros:

Location was good, and the staff were really helpful.

Cons:

Very dated decor, family room was tiny, we were falling over our things. Bedroom was next door to hotel toilets, no sound insulation (we could hear everything). Didn’t help the room faced the courtyard outside the hotel which was noisy on a Friday night. Bathroom was pretty dire. All clean though.
