friendly staff tea making

the staff was friendly. i had everything i needed and it was really handy for my plans near the area. there was tea making in the room and the shower was something i looked forward to.

the hotel room become too warm. only one window opened, but the window covering meant you could only have the window open, or privacy.

mixed experience at this pub stay

street noise difficult check-in

i stayed in a room where the street noise was a real issue. the windows are old and single-glazed (i guess they haven't been updated in ages). it reminded me of i was trying to sleep outside. also, check-in was a hassle. i had to push my way through pub patrons to get any service. not ideal after a long day of travel.
