Not worth the money they charge per night
Pros:

Not much to like about this hotel. Staff are very nice, that's about it.

Cons:

The room was dirty, stains everywhere throughout the room and a constant smell of food and grease from the kitchen which obviously travels up through the hotel. Breakfast was poor quality. It was cold, not a lot on offer and did not taste great. Finally, from a very early hour there was a very loud noise outside the room, at first I thought it was building works but it turned out to be a vent right outside the window. At the price I paid it was not worth it. There are much better hotels of the same star out there providing much better facilities than this.
