Had a hard time figuring out how to adjust the temperature. It was warm in the room, but I did open the windows more which helped a great deal. Wouldn’t recommend for elderly people or anyone with difficulty climbing stairs.

Good value

Super convenient with self check in which is great when arriving late. Radiator was on full so room was super hot but it cooled quickly with the window open and radiator off. Unfortunately this let a lot of marijuana smoke into the room from somewhere. Shower was surprisingly good Reasonably convenient for the train station.

Excellent budget accommodation.

Compact room but with everything you need for an overnight business stop. Comfy bed, plenty of power points, fold down table, fridge (with complimentary drinks), and a microwave. Room was spotlessly clean as was the ensuite. Off street parking.
