Convenient location but not pleasant. Bring earplugs.
Pros:

Walking distance from an aircoach stop so reasonably straightforward journey from airport
Really quick check in

Cons:

Biggest problem was the noise throughout the night which kept waking me up. Mostly from other customers and what sounded like someone packing away a kitchen or event, emptying bins, doors banging, people screeching at 1am. Someone waking up and moving about next door at 6am (weekend). The walls are so thin and the door did not fit the frame so light and noise came through. Room was very warm but the window only opens a crack. Promised free shampoo and shower gel but the container on the wall in the shower was empty (realised once mid-shower).
The TV did not work, needed to scan channels, not obvious how to fix this, tried to call reception multiple times but no answer.
The mattress was incredibly uncomfortable, springy with a big dip in. The bed height is very short, I’m only 5’ 4” and found my feet were restricted at times. Water pressure in the sink was weak.
My friend complained about the noise and was offered possibly a free breakfast which doesn’t really help you get a good nights sleep so not much you can do but suffer unfortunately.

Cons:

The shower flooded easily and there was no other solution than to wait until the water had drained away…pretty disgusting but apart from this everthing was perfect. This was in room 1

Маленький номер, максимум на 1-2 ночи.
Pros:

Хорошее расположение, дешевле многих вариантов в городе, в котором цены завышены
Была возможность оставить вещи до официального заселения

Cons:

1.Супер маленький номер. Втроем не развернуться
2.До 00:30 на 1 этаже был юбилей/праздник, музыка орала
3. Напора в душе нет, если кто то выше/в соседнем номере включает воду то льется только холодная вода, еле теплая
4. Когда зашли было жутко жарко, окна полностью не открыть... при этом в душе холодно. Оказалось отопление работает до какого-то часа, потом нет и ночью стало холодно
5. В 10 минутах от отеля есть остановка с которой идет автобус до аэропорта
6. Скорее всего если поедите летом и будет жарко, то помрете от жары

Okay if you just want a clean room and good sleep but water pressure in shower and issue.
Pros:

Cleanliness, price and quality of sleep

Cons:

Water pressure in shower particularly bad. Started off okay then dropped suddenly and remained low.
Staff member, although pleasant, and cheerful at breakfast took my order and delivered toast tea and food promptly, but was never seen again. No checking to see if everything was okay or if i needed extra tea or toast.
No fresh fruit at breakfast and an uninspiring selection of cereals.
TV in room too high and badly placed, can't watch whilst in bed
