8/10 Very Good! (477 reviews)

Very conveniently located directly near the city. My first time travelling solo and I had a good experience, staff were friendly, check in and out was easy considering it was my first time, the room I had was clean, had sky tv, and had everything I needed. Probably only downside would be the parking, maybe invest in a gate or something, there seemed to be a lot of pedestrians crossing through. That’s my only critic, can’t go wrong with this place

8.6/10 Excellent! (236 reviews)

Great location and amenities. However, road noise through single glazed windows and a noisy neighbour above was the only downside. Suggest bringing ear plugs but otherwise, everything else was perfect.
