friendly staffcentral locationdinner exceptionnoise level
The staff were REALLY friendly. The location is perfect. All the main attractions were within walking distance from the hotel. The hotel kindly made an exception for me missing the dinner hour cutoff. I got delicious bangers and mash.
The room faced the front of the building. It was a NIGHTMARE in terms of noise level. I found it difficult to get any sleep because the music played until the early hours.
