Pros:

The staff were very friendly & welcoming.
The room was ok.

Cons:

The room was far too hot & the thermostat wouldn't lower the temperature. I was later told that the manager could access the thermostat remotely!!
I was above the pub & conservatory, so you could hear the music quite loudly & the people coming to the pub talking.
The room had a mirror that had icons lit up on it, which lit the room all night, so I had to put a towel over it to dim it and been able to sleep

Beware! Scam
Pros:

Nothing to like at all!

Cons:

These guys are scammers. The hotel doesn't work. I don't know why they are still visible in booking.com.
