Top Location Plus Awesome Price!
great location amazing price
This location is GREAT! I could walk to the city center easily, and the Asda store is super close. The price was amazing, especially considering how expensive other hotels can be!
My bathroom didn't have many toiletries, only toilet paper, so I think adding some would be great.

the staff were really nice , arranging balloons and birthday banners in the room. this was a special touch for my sister in law's 21st birthday , a beautiful gesture. they also allowed us to store our bags before check in and after check out , granting us extra time for shopping.
the hallway noise was slightly disruptive at times.
