I'm happy
Pros:

Location very good, no noise during night hours. Very friendly helpfull staff! Nice room size, big closet, plenty sockets for charging things.

Cons:

The showerhead is aimed at the wall so the water does not fall inside the bathtub, fixed the angle by using a plastic bag. Nothing to worry about, easy fix. But it is weird to have non adjustable angle showerhead thats aimed to a wall instead of aimed down a little.

Terrible plumbing
Pros:

Price, location

Cons:

The shower was inside the bath which is no probs but when you turn the shower head on the spray of the water reaches the far end of the bath and the way the actual bath has been installed the water overspray from the shower head actually runs out onto the floor and absolutley saturates the bathroom floor. I have stayed at this hotel before and I mentioned this to the reception, obviously my complaint fell on deaf ears and was not rectified.

Good
Pros:

Large comfortable room with TV. Staff all pleasant. Good price for what you get. We just spent the night before flying the next day. It had a bath as well.

Cons:

No kettle in the room. We had a large and very noisy beetle make an appearance. No issue with insects otherwise. No lift so lots of stairs if on higher floor.
