Very comfortable!
Pros:

Beds were super comfortable, shower was amazing. Air-conditioning worked well, tv great.

Cons:

The floor was rather...crunchy and covered in stains. We did find a fair few loose hairs around the place as well. The sheets and towels were immaculate though!

Great for early airport flight
Pros:

Easy check in, nicely renovated room, plenty of tea and coffee, relatively spacious, nice meal at the pub next door and a great price.
Easy access to the airport in the morning.

Cons:

Super noisy, didnt get much sleep at all. Being a Friday night and next to a pub is understandable though but we could literally hear everything from traffic to everything else happening around us. Beds and pillows were a little too soft and room was very bright during the night.

The room was clean and comfortable. The heating worked well and the TV has lots of options (apps etc). The accommodation is very close to supermarkets, cafes and other shops.

Cons:

The shower temperature fluctuated from hot to cold constantly.
