The room was neat and clean, clearly people smoked in this room, it stank. Also there is a coffee machine with a few teas and one decaf. So it was just ok, but I would come back not recommend it.

Check-in experience wasn't great - had to message the property twice to get the door codes. The code provided was then incorrect so I had to call the number they provided. However, they did respond promptly to my messages and calls and I was able to get into my room relatively quickly. A minor inconvenience.
Seems like some of the rooms were being renovated so there was a bit of noise from that but nothing major.
The hotel is in a great location with easy access to shops, restaurants, and pubs. Overall it was clean and the room was really nice. No amenities but if you're just looking for a place to sleep it's perfect.
