Perfect for a night. Basic rooms but priced accordingly.
Pros:

Excellent location, great facilities. Decor and mood of the place are nice and modern without going overboard.

Cons:

Room showing a bit of wear. Bathroom a tiny bit small. Neither of which are a huge worry at this price point.
No water in the room or safe though. Should be basics and easy to provide.

Good location but don’t care about cleaning rooms
Pros:

Good location. A few activities to do in the hotel.

Cons:

Stayed for 10 days, room was only cleaned twice (?!). Shocking as we kept telling reception that we need the room cleaned. Not even toilet rolls or picking up rubbish

Great, would stay again
Pros:

It’s a great location, and staff are super friendly. The hotel lobby/bar/restaurant area is really fun, with pool tables and darts. The cocktails were tasty. The rooms look a little knackered, there a quite a few chips off the paint, and it would have been good to have a fridge in the room. Showers were good. We’d stay there again, staff were lovely

Cons:

No fridge

P3nta Review
Pros:

I like how friendly all the staff are and the rooms are very spacious

Cons:

The chrome cast still doesn't work and its been quite a few months now. It's a shame as myself and my partner were hoping to watch something other than the normal TV channels

Pros:

Excellent location and very welcoming staff. Great lobby with free access to ping pong, darts etc.

Cons:

Room was a bit smelly, window wasn't closing properly so it was very noisy from the traffic, partially blocked drain in the shower, we had no shower gel at all and I could keep going. Needs a bit more attention to details. It has the potential to be a great hotel.
