Hotel room good but breakfast needs to be more substantial
Pros:

I thought the breakfast was quite meagre. I would have liked to choose both porridge and toast. Breakfast was too small

Cons:

We had cocktails in the balcony bar- couldn't taste any alcohol although cost £10 each!

A good stay, would go back.
Pros:

Reasonable location with a short walk to the high streets and restaurants etc. Comfortable and spacious.

Cons:

Parking is limited so they charge extra £20 for overnight stay but there is local parking a short walk for less than half price. Some information could have been handy in the room, such as how and what network to connect to wifi and breakfast information

Pros:

Location of Hotel to the City. Room was clean. Bathroom and room were very spacious. Reasonable view.

Cons:

Bed was absolutely awful. So soft that it felt lumpy. Pillows were fluffy then lay your head, they were as flat as the pillowcase despite trying to use three! Bathroom shower screen has a lot of mould. Desk was propped up. Hardly any plugs. Do not use usb charging points as they drain your mobiles, not charge. Lack of parking underneath Hotel: it does say limited but there were other, presumably offices, areas empty! Not a welcoming feeling to be shunted to 'park anywhere else in the City'. When deaparting, the guy on Reception aaked how our stay was so I said awful and he sniggered then grunted!
