Not great
Pros:

The lady at reception was lovely

Cons:

The cleanliness was lacking massively. Dirty cups, spoons etc. there was also hair in the shower and a bathroom floor slat had come loose which I nearly slipped over on. Whoever was in the room next to me clearly had an argument with his front door as he kept slamming it incredibly hard which isn’t pleasant as you’re about to fall asleep. Unfortunately my room was by the car park and at around midnight there were several cars racing around.
