the hotel is very central especially if you are travelling by train.
i stayed in room 233, there was no window! 4 solid brick walls, no fresh air or natural light. No Airconditioning just an old-fashioned fan,
i think if you are going to sell a room without a window you should advise the guest as it is a natural expectation!
just as you expect a bed and a bathroom.
Room dirty, window left open and a pigeon was already there in residence when i checked in, altered reception and they commented 'we get a lot around here'!!
Needed a hotel for one night which was close to the railway station, as catching an early flight. Good location, great value and the room on the 5th floor was clean and comfortable.
Hotel was reasonably priced, the staff were helpful and efficient. The beds were comfortable, and the coffee making facilities were good, although it would have been nice to have some de-caffeinated coffee.
The only problem was that the plug hole in the shower needed clearing out. We could only run the shower for a couple of minutes before we had to turn it off, otherwise the shower tray would have overflowed. I couldnât risk washing my hair in it, so had to go out to buy some dry shampoo.
We were able to leave our bags at reception after we checked out, which was very helpful.
The hotel is in a super-convenient city centre location. Take the Stephenson Street exit from the station and you'll come onto New Street almost opposite the hotel.
The room was clean and the bed was comfortable. Only basic toiletries and refreshments (no biscuits on the tea tray â remember to toss a pack of chocolate digestives in your bag) but overall good value for the price.
One thing to note is that the revolving door at the entrance is very heavy and takes some muscle to start moving. I literally had to put my shoulder to it. Could cause difficulty for anyone with physical weakness or disability.
The staff on reception were polite. Check-out is simply dropping your key in a box, quick and easy.
So overall, a good option for a convenient and economical city stay.
