Fifth time staying here
Pros:

Location - perfect
Room - clean, cosy with an impressive view of the new stadium
Coffee machine with pods - delish
Staff (front of house, bar and house keeping) - all friendly amd helpful

Cons:

One of the elevators was playing up and I got stuck 😐 scary and unexpected. Afterwards there was an out of service notice posted.
Some aspects of the room are beginning to look a bit aged (carpet) but doesn't impact the comfort.
