We were able to check in early and the room had clearly just been cleaned as it smelt very fresh. Breakfast was good for the price and had plenty of options. Easy access to the city centre via the bus and was able to park the car for free for the duration of our stay. I would stay here again if i was in the area. The only criticism is that the iron in the room did not work very well.

8/10 Very good

The staff were very accommodating and friendly as they allowed me to check in 2 hours early without any issues. The room was pleasantly spacious, however I did notice several stains on the carpet and the tv had been unplugged. Due to being wall mounted I had to ask a member of staff to help get it plugged in, only to find the chrome cast feature did not work and seems to be a common issue.
