Disappointing.
Pros:

The very limited parking available and the location are this hotels' main attributes. The breakfast was also fine.

Cons:

The decor of the hotel is dark and dingy, it remined us of a cross between a backpackers and cell block H. The room was a decent size but lacked a wardrobe or anywhere to put your case to open it. Paint was chipped of what furniture there was and the architraves, giving the place a run down look. What with the very dark decor it was quite depressing and I'm glad we were there only 1 night. It was also the second most expensive place we stayed which was also disappointing.

Could have been better.
Pros:

Location was great

Cons:

Water pressure in the shower was terrible. Interior design very dark and some of the staff seemed to be sleepwalking. Breakfast was sufficient though.
