Only good thing about this hotel is it's location, being right in the city centre. The room was very small; there was no air conditioning or cooling (just a freestanding electric fan); the shower room flooring tiles were broken in several places;

We had a one night stay at the hotel. Our room was clean. Floors abit wonky. Bed was comfortable. Check in and out was easy. Location good. Quite noisy with doors opening and closing and in the morning there seemed to be some work going on in or just outside the hotel which made it quite loud. Would stay again. No negatives
