Look elsewhere
Pros:

Only the location

Cons:

Unfortunately, this stay was disappointing.

The TV didn't work for the duration of my stay, and housekeeping failed to service my room on one of the days.
A new TV was provided the night before I checked out...too late!

The room itself was very basic, with almost nowhere to put personal belongings and virtually no amenities provided. There weren't even any coat hangers, despite there being a clothing rack.

Privacy was also an issue. The curtains couldn't really be opened because people could see directly into the room. At the same time, keeping the door open wasn't practical, which meant the room had very little natural light or fresh air.

Overall, the room felt cramped and lacked the comfort and facilities I would expect for the price.
