Perfect location, great facilities and staff, bat/cafe very welcoming to single women.
Pros:

Loved the bar/cafe. Very welcoming to single women. The check in was superb - I was an hour or two early but the staff booked me into a room that I could use immediately. As I was only there for 2 days and had a games things booked, it was great to know I was already in the room and unpacked.

Cons:

Nothing at all

Excellent
Pros:

Honestly the staff were amazing with me. Michelle the night staff lady called me an ambulance and stayed with me. Spoke to my mum on the phone to explain the situation. I couldn't have asked for someone kinder! So thank you Michelle and I am sorry to put you through that X
The location is amazing. I ironically came to the UK to visit my nan in the hospital and ended up in a bed there too :( I will definitely stay here again.
Highly recommend.
