Pros:

This was my second stay here. At first, we were given a very small room, but we asked at reception if there was a larger room available. The staff were incredibly helpful and arranged a room change for us. This made a huge difference to our stay and we really appreciated their flexibility.
The location is absolutely perfect with lot of restaurants nearby.

Pros:

The staff were absolutely lovely and amazing. Easily contactable and very friendly!

Cons:

When I first checked in I was shown to a room which had not been cleaned from the previous stay (bins not emptied, no fresh towels, etc)
I was shown a variety of clean rooms to chose alternatively however they were all similar and the one I chose did still have a fist through the bathroom door, holes from screws, button from the toilet clicked in, random neon pink substance on the ceiling and hairdryer did not work.

Unfortunately we are staying here again
Pros:

I like the location on of where the property was located.

Cons:

Unfortunately, the bed was broken and the shower door was also broken. I reported to the issue to the receptionist and they have said that they would get someone from the maintenance team to fix the shower door. Unfortunately this was not the case. Regarding the bed they said that they could not do much regarding the bed. There was dust on the top of the head board, the floor was not well hoovered. Unfortunately, I will not stay here again, it’s a shame as it’s in a good location.
