Pros:

Good location.

Cons:

The very friendly staff agreed to book us a taxi to the airport for 0615 the following morning. No taxi arrived and when called the taxi company did not have our reservation. Hotel front desk was not yet open. We were lucky to flag down a taxi just in time. Very stressful!
Did not expect to have loud music playing below our room until 11pm.

Reasonably priced accommodation for group of three.
Pros:

Appreciated 20% discount on breakfast if ordered in advanced. Also, the location of the hotel is rather convenient since it is in walking distance of the city center.

Room itself was comfy, clean, albeit a bit cramped.

Breakfast, as well as the dinner you can order at adjacent pub, was decent.

Cons:

The age of the hotel is beginning to show. Maybe it would be worth to start thinking about some renovations.

Also, it may be worth thinking about raising a price a bit and having a complimentary, buffet-style breakfast instead of made-to-order ones.
