Too hot! No sleep without aircon
Pros:

The room was clean and modern. Easy to get to city centre by foot and staff were very friendly.

Cons:

Unfortunately my stay was very average due to the fact there is no air conditioning in the rooms. The night I stayed it had been nearly 30 degrees and the room honestly felt like a sauna from the moment I arrived until when I checked out. The room has two windows, one can only be opened slightly and the other in the bathroom which does not affect the temperature of the bedroom. Along with the fact the underfloor heating is still on even with the temp dials turned all the way down it is a very uncomfortable sleep on a hot day and because of this I would not stay again as I got no sleep because of this. Apart from this it is a very noisy spot, outside the hotel and inside with people talking loudly in corridors and doors opening/shutting. This hotel would be fine to stay at in cooler weather but definitely not in the heat unless air conditioning is installed.

Very poor
Pros:

The location and shower was not bad

Cons:

The bed matters were very bad, springs would stab you. The internet was very bad, I mean very bad. The do not disturb sing that you hang out on your was always ignored, they come in and go as they please in your room, you might as well throw that sign in the bin since they don't listen to it
