Such a shame as comfy and pleasant, but a lot of rough people spoil the whole experience.
Pros:

The room and bed was comfortable. The staff were super friendly and helpful.

Cons:

Other guests were extremely inconsiderate - shouting and stamping around all night and from 6 am in the morning. Due to the calibre of other guests, if you’re travelling for business, don’t expect a good night sleep!
