Not for me!
Pros:

The lovely lady Hannah on reception. So polite, professional and worthy of a job in a top notch hotel.

Cons:

Small room, lack of facilities, view facing a wall, chiller in room barely chilled anything, bland, total lack of decor. Having said all this, the accommodation was cheap, so I guess you get what you pay for.

I would never stay here again.
Pros:

The convenience of how far it was to my work

Cons:

The walls were dirty, the carpet was torn, the mattress was non existent, hands down the worst sleep (if you can even call it sleep) I've ever had. Springs broken and it had collapsed. The sink had something splattered up the side of it, one light didn't work, holes in the wall and the most disgusting smell coming from the bathroom. AVOID!!

Convenient and good value but could do with me mattresses. Staff are great.
Pros:

Staff are great, location is fab.

Cons:

The beds definitely need new mattresses, have stayed a few times and always have a bad back from the springs in the mattress. Couple of the rooms are fine so I ask for these ones now.
