Barely adequate
Pros:

Good location

Cons:

One window with no curtain. Broken shower handle. Faulty tv. Not serving breakfast at all. Not even as an extra. One member of staff said yes at 10am and was overruled, no breakfast.

Convenient and welcoming.
Pros:

The friendliness and helpfulness of the staff.
Very impressed they went to buy a new room fan when we asked for an extra one.k

Cons:

We would have appreciated the option of having breakfast included.
The shower in our room leaked so we had to put towels all over the floor.
Also nowhere to put the soap in the shower.
