I visited a venue close by and this hotel was the cheapest at reasonable walking distance. A bigger bed was available and I found the price was great for New Year. The woman who greeted us on arrival was very kind. The guy at checkout was chatty and he reassured our stay was excellent. I was charmed by the easy-going vibe. I liked the industrial urban design of the hotel too.

central locationfriendly staffearly closurebreakfast disappointment

the location proved very central to my plans. the staff were consistently friendly and helpful . complimentary fruit was a nice touch, available in the lobby alongside extra tea when needed.

The bar closed rather early on a friday night, around 11 pm. breakfast was disappointing. Food items were often cold and ran out without being refilled in a timely manner. the toast machine was also out of service. there was no orange juice available.
