Excellent value for money, and very pleasant staff. The room was very clean and comfortable

Pros:

The manager on the front desk was very welcoming and very accommodating. They saved me a parking space and allowed me to drop my car off before check in as me and my day were going into London to watch a show.

Lots of tea, coffee, milk and sugar in the room and bottled water. Normally at hotels you have to ask for more ! Clean comfy bed. Good for the price

Basic and a bit dated but very clean with friendly staff. I would stay again for the price
Pros:

Very friendly staff and room was very clean. Stayed in a single room and would recommend to other solo workers/travellers. A fridge in the room was a bonus too and I had fresh towels everyday.

Cons:

There’s a bit of outside noise at night and there was a floodlight which lit up a fair bit outside my window but didn’t lesson my experience, I would stay again.
