Shame about a small amount of things.
Pros:

Room was clean.

Cons:

, toilet seat needed adjusted as it kept falling when standing, TV was useless, had to get someone to come up and retune , even after he did this it left a big box of information on the screen, so I gave up .. pillows were extremely uncomfortable. Breakfast was the worse I ever had in my life, I felt cheated out of my breakfast, awful taste, I ask the young lady about the sausages and bacon, to be told they are chicken sausages and turkey bacon, (halal) as a country that has hotels to serve all I am disgusted and disappointed to see they are only catering for Muslim people, this is not a racist comment as my father is Muslim. I will not stay here again just on the breakfast issue, as this was supposed to set me up for the long journey ahead of me, instead I could not eat it and went and bought something else.

Fantastic spacious room with excellent kitchenette facilities in superb location.
Pros:

Great spacious room with kitchenette and very comfy bed. Excellent parking rate. Fab location especially for Aviva studios. All equipment needed for a few days stay

Cons:

Sofa was stained and very tired but throws were provided. No airconditioning however fans were provided. Did find the bath/ shower very high to get into. Carpets in corridors very bleached and stained. Breakfast was ok but not the best.
