Needs maintenance and better customer service
Pros:

The location is good but that is probably the only thing I liked

Cons:

Numerous issues with my stay. One lift was out of order so there was a queue to go upstairs to the room. The carpet in the room was threadbare. It was not possible to stand under the shower as it was set too low. The window above the bed was drafty.

The other major issue was the hotel were unable to issue an invoice on check out and have been ignoring all requests for one. Even Booking.com were unable to get a response
