Excellent stay, will definitely be back
Pros:

Excellent value, staff were all very lovely and the location was perfect. Breakfast was included and on the days we had it there was always plenty of choice. When we return to Newcastle we will definitely stay again. We had to extend our stay by one night and they dealt with it very efficiently.

Cons:

Nothing couldn’t fault anything.
