Overall I'd stay again
Pros:

Great town centre location. Triple room had plenty of space for three.

Cons:

Music was playing from very early morning (6/7am till 9am) in the cafe/ area directly below the room so that woke us. Could hear the alarm clock going off in the room above and every footstep. Lighting was really poor in the room and bathroom.
