Pros:

The room was big and comfortable. You could hear the noises from the pub underneath but it really wasn't bad - and we sleep with open windows. The bathroom was huge. Shower had a good size.
Location was great.

Cons:

The only thing that bothered me, was that there was no shelf at the bathroom sink or hooks next to it. Makes using the sink very inconvenient.
