Excellent value for a short stay in Bradford.
Pros:

At the price (£47 for the night) I wasn’t expecting the Ritz but I was very pleasantly surprised - big comfortable room, breakfast included, nice staff and reasonable value dinner. Location a bit bleak but close to bus station and Interchange train station so good transport connections.

Cons:

Breakfast mostly ok but bread virtually inedible - think blotting paper. Bleak concrete surroundings.

Just ordinary.. Not better than other cheaper options
Pros:

Location was good... Nearby train line and mall butt no nearby grocery shop

Cons:

Extra bed was super uncomfortable and not safe for kids. And rims are noisy.. You could clearly hear cars on the road seven we changed the room but both rooms were noisy.
