Pros:

Convenient for the airport and bus network

Cons:

Over charged for dinner and then a separate unexplained item appeared on my credit card. This took three days to resolve which was a worry at the time. It was wiped off my card in the end.

Hotel OK, parking impossible but still charged
Pros:

The room was spacious and comfortable

Cons:

I had booked a parking space but the car parks were overcrowded. Actually there is a low number of spaces compared to the size of the hotel. When checking in I mentioned that there was not even a space and that I had to park for triple the price in the airport car park in basically one of the very last spaces there. I requested to at least remove the parking fee, to which the lady agreed in a sort of manner ‘we do this all the time’. However, I got the invoice/receipt only after payment on departure and they still charged me for the hotel car park. Then an attempt to refund was made but I was told that it required a manager who was not present. The refund is still on hold in my account and I probably never see the fee being returned which means I have now paid four times what I otherwise would have paid for parking. Very poor service.
