A comfortable base for a short trip, conveniently located, friendly service.
Pros:

Room was quiet, spacious and very clean. Everything I needed for a short stay.

Cons:

The area around the station is not very inspiring but convenient if a city centre location is not a priority.

A very central location with great transport links . A quiet and comfortable room too .
Pros:

The location is great if you intend to use the station , or local buses . The room was quiet and comfortable to sleep in . There are two lifts which work efficiently . I was able to walk into the city centre , although it's a mile and a half , and there are a few convenient stores very close by to the hotel . If you decline the daily visit by the house keeping staff , you're rewarded with a £5.00 off token for use in the hotel's cafe .

Cons:

Only a few small gripes with the hotel , and minor ones at that , are as follows ; the seat in the room is not all that comfortable . The reception on the TV was bad at times , and there were no cable channels . The onsite restaurant had a menu which was too restricted for me , as there only seemed to be pizzas as a hot choice . I did not dine there .
