The accommodation slightly exceeded my expectations so I was satisfied.
Pros:

Good location. Room well appointed for the price.

Cons:

External light couldn't be turned off resulting in the room being quite light at night.

A nice, fairly priced studio hotel room.
Pros:

The main room was very spacious and clean on arrival. The room was also well furnished with a couch, coffee table, a dining table, a TV and there were several packets of tea and coffee in the kitchen area.

Cons:

While not as bad as some reviewers have made it out to be, there were several mould growths on the ceiling of the bathroom. It was a bit off putting.
