Positive: Great location close to main attractions in the area. The man in Reception was absolutely lovely. Very pleasant check in. The room was pristine clean and smelt lovely! The bed was as comfortable. Tea and coffee available in the room as well as a microwave and the usual shampoo etc plus a hair dryer. We stayed in room 20 which had a balcony. It is up some steps though.
Negative: We had room 20 which was lovely but facing the busy road outside so traffic could be heard but it wasn’t too loud.
Summary: Very nice stay, super clean, fragrant smelling room, lovely staff.

Positive: Close location to the airport. Worked well for budget overnight accommodation before a flight.
Negative: We did arrive in the dark, while it was raining. There wasn't enough lighting and parking. We had to climb quite a few stairs in the dark and the rain to get to our room. Also, there was no shower cubicle door, so water went everywhere in the bathroom. Lastly, the presence of a random shoe under a bed showed that the room hadn't really been cleaned properly.
Summary: Okay, for one night's budget accommodation
