adequate facilities and location

easy checkin spacious room hotel facade stuffy room

the room was great. self checkin was very easy and there were great facilities in the room. i felt the space was generous.

the 'hotel' isn't really a hotel. the front of the hotel is a facade. i didn't see staff, a dining room, a bar, or a reception room. the rooms felt very stuffy and i found no obvious way to open any windows.

great experience

yellow decor helpful staff train cancellations

the room had nice features like the beams and modern yellow decor. it was also a great size for just myself. the staff helped me book another night when my trains were cancelled, which i appreciated.

the noise from the main road kept me awake much of the night. i probably got only two hours of sleep total. better soundproofing is needed.
