Pretty poor.
Pros:

Great position

Cons:

Dining facilities were below zero standard. We waited approximately 1 hr for our meal, after cold soup entree was delivered. We ended up walking out and going else where.

Pros:

Standard of cleanliness was high, which was nice as we'd had the same experience the week before - shows consistency

Cons:

The location of the room.. which can't really be helped. And some noisy neighbours.. which also can't really be helped.
