It was fine
Pros:

It was central to everything we needed, staff were great and very friendly

Cons:

The rooms were to hot. Opened the window which was fine but the smell of cigarette smoke was horrible. The bedside table had to be moved as it was so pointy and close to bed I hit myself a couple of times. Beds were not the most comfortable, the fire alarm light that was flashing was so bright and the person upstairs was so noisey (which obviously isn’t the hotels fault).
