Uncomfortable due to lack of cleanliness-shame as staff are nice!
Pros:

Location good for travelling and staff pleasant and tried to accommodate requests

Cons:

The hotel needs refurbishing and cleaning. The room including the bathroom was dirty. The bedside mat looked like it hadn’t been cleaned ever. During the night there were guests shouting and banging doors ( this was just on one night) which was impossible to sleep through.
