Pretty average considering the location on the outskirts of the city centre, a few minutes away from all the city has to offer.
A fair bit of noise from traffic, sirens etc.
The entrance is down a side street off a busy carriageway. At first a little impersonal, rather like walking into a post office, but I suppose the strengthened glass enclosure affords a little security to the staff should it be required.
Travelling alone, my room was on the 2nd floor, accessable by stairs. Not the best of views from the window. Looked out over the car park and some sort of compound, but I was only there for one night.
Everything was compact. The shower /sink / toilet room was quite tiny. Wouldnt suit a larger person. The small TV is fitted on an adjustable wall bracket. It has to be switched on by a switch on the TV set before you can use the remote and when first switched on, reception looks poor (pixellating) but this settles to decent reception after a minute or so. The TV switches off automatically at midnight.
Furnishings are designed without doors or drawers, but there is enough room to store your clothing and other goods neatly. Just plain decor on walls and ceiling with a couple of mirrors and a portrait, but all clean and tidy looking.
The kettle was in a quite new condition and there were tea bags (Yorkshire), coffee sachets (nescafe) milk pots and sugar and more were available downstairs in the bar / restraunt area if required.
The bed was very comfortable.
