Practical, friendly and comfortable
Pros:

Staff were friendly, room was spacious, good choice and variety at breakfast and lovely being on top floor with the view of the airport runway. Location was perfect for proximity to airport and overall area was quiet.

Cons:

Sadly they had a technical issue with the TV's and none were working the night we were there, arriving on a Sunday meant they couldn't get a technician out until the following morning after we'd checked out (much to my daughters dismay, after the day promising some TV time once we reached the hotel!) But it's definitely a first world problem and free wifi did the trick with my mobile. A few empty used bottles of water in our bedside draws left me wondering how well the room was cleaned but again, for one night, we got over it!
