Pros:

The room was very clean and well organised, which was such a lovely surprise. At 8 months pregnant, I also really appreciated how comfortable the couch and bed were. I would highly recommend it for work trips or a budget-friendly weekend getaway.

Awesome.
Pros:

Great location, great price, comfortable, happy with the booking!

Cons:

Wifi slow, resorted to 5g. Also no cutlery in the room is odd, have to get from reception which isn't a huge issue for most but I had to leave prior to reception opening each day and didn't get back till after they closed.
