Liked: Quite close to the Metro Radio Arena, which is handy for gigs. Room had a comfortable bed with pristine linen and an en suite with a jolly good power shower. Receptionist extremely helpful and let me print out another copy of my e-ticket for the gig when I lost the first one - lifesaver!
Disliked: It's up quite a steep hill, which can be a problem to climb after a few bottles of the local ale. If possible, take cash to pay the balance as they charge extra for settling it by card.

Liked: It was in a quiet part of town, away from the noise of the centre, it had a pool table that didnt work& it was kind of homely. One guy was sweet for he let us leave our bags there while we went and spent the whole day outside, they were very heavy, so we appreciated that.
Disliked: The soap had not even been changed or the bin, does that mean the room was partly clean???? The TV didnt work, it was cold& I left jeans folded on the windowsill, when picking them up later, they were soaking because of a leak. We told them but they didnt either understand us, werent exactly bothered.When checking in, we were very early& prepared but even then, we sat there for 3 hrs & no one even told us our room was ready till we asked.

Liked: Friendly staff, lovely clean sheets and towels. No problem when asked for replenishment of in room tea making facilities. Although a bit of a hike on way back from town, on main bus route.
Disliked: would have liked to have been able to put the table lamp between the beds. no close plug available, but as i always travel with own reading light not a great problem.

Liked: Receptionists were nice but not the cleaning ladies. They tried to get us out of the room 30 minutes before check-out time and removed all the food for breakfast before breakfast time was over. They could hardly speak english and didn't even try to look nice with the customers.Very satisfactory breakfast except that one of the cleaning ladies turned off the toaster while it was toasting my bread...Very good bathroom with shower and bath though you've got to share with the whole floor. Hotel was kind of a hostel actually. Got to walk for a 20 minutes or take the bus in order to get to the centre, nothing to do really in the hotel area.
Disliked: Customer left no negative feedback.
