Pros:

Location. Receptionist was just lovely and very helpful. She was cheerful and accommodating. Very close to everything. Great having tea, coffee etc.

Cons:

To be fair I booked a bunkroom and it was cheap. Just really stuffy, noisy being on bottom floor near reception. Squeaky bunk beds. Bathroom fan incredibly noisy and roller door needs repair. Kept jamming closed coming off runners. Going forward I'll pay a bit extra and check reviews next time.
