Good value ,could be excellent with a few tweeks
Pros:

GOOD VALUE. Relatively close to station. Staff helpful

Cons:

The cold water tap in the basin could not be turned on. The toilet took several flushes which is embarrassing if you are leaving early in the morning and in a hurry.

Noisy bar area.
