Yes lovely room but it must be advised that this is a pub
Pros:

The room was lovely and clean. Nice gestures such as tea and coffee facilities. There was a heated towel rail. Very gratefully received. Bed was exceptionally comfortable.

Cons:

Arrived and found it was a pub.
They had drag bingo on at the time. Very loud music but it did stop at 11pm.
Room had no window.
I don’t think anyone is on site after 11pm which was concerning.

Perfect stay
Pros:

Very welcoming as soon as you walk through the door. Staff were very attentive and clear with instructions. Checking in was simple and quick.
The room itself was cozy and had a really nice feel to it. Attention to detail has gone along way. Beds are really comfortable, plenty of space in the room. Bathroom was clean and shower gel and lotion ect provided. Lovely soft towels. Tea and coffee making facilities were very nice, nespresso machine, a range of different teas and small bottles of milk. A bar fridge on each floor with chilled milk and bottles of water for your taking when needed.
Location is perfect! Station is only a few minutes walk away.
We would definitely come back and stay here again.
