central location, great value

central locationcar parkingsmoke smell
the hotel's location was central . i secured a discount at the kebab place below and also on car parking, useful.
the room had a strong smoke smell and constant noise came from operating fans , which i found distracting. the shower door would not close properly, and the water temperature fluctuated between scalding hot and freezing cold.

i was so excited about how central this location is! the room was bigger than expected, i was able to spread out and relax. i found an iron and a kettle which was amazing for quick touch-ups and a hot drink before heading out. the bed was comfy too!
the room needed some love.. i saw a few holes in the walls, and some sockets didn't work.
