3rd stay here. It’s a great option to be close to the city and it’s well priced.
Pros:

Room was warm. Nice pillows and sheets and the staff had warmed our room prior to our arrival. The body wash in the shower smelt great and the room was clean.

Cons:

Nothing we didn’t like

Worse stay out of several.
Cons:

For the money paid room was a dissapointment. Very draughty. Could see daylight through the front door. Need to spend money to remedy this. The bathroom window was draughty and had to roll up towel to minimise. The heating took a long time to warm the unit because of this. No breakfast included. Would have been better to have booked a two bedroom unit twice to include breakfast and avoid the draughty unit. Have stayed here several times but know there are other options that the above would be considered.
