"Close to transport, Westfield and Hospital. If you are not looking for a view just concrete buildings and brick walls, far from nature. Clean room with various useful amenities. Friendly staff, however understand not everyone is tech savvy and assistance offered to help with check in would be a great benefit to make the stay easy and less time consuming from the start. Overall pleased."

"This was a great place to stay in a really good central location, with plenty of things to do within a fairly short drive. Reception staff were absolutely lovely. The room looks relatively nice but there were just a lot of small things that made it really outdated.
