Decent hotel, rooms were quite basic. There was a lot of noise from the general area, I could hear snoring in the room next door, lots of noise in the corridoor. Hotel is very busy all the time, the walls are quite thin. A 'park view' means a view of the main road outside, so a bit misleading there, noise outside too. The curtains don't black out the light from the outside. Decent price considering the area, very good location. I didn't have breakfast so can't comment on that

Did the job but expensive for the amenities
I was expecting more for the price. The hotel is dated, particularly the bathroom furniture. The bath must be from the 60s or 70s and thats the overall impression of the decor and structure. And not in a quaint charming way. It met my needs but only at a basic level. I would have marked it higher if it had been £100 less a night than the high proce I paid. Its a decent hotel but needs investment.

Disliked: Room comfort
I hardly slept - I was on the first floor. Initially there was loud music permeating fromthe ground floor below until around 2pm. Around 3 pm there were loud metalic bangs emanating from outside in the front of the hotel I think there is a storage unit below street level ag the front of the hotel where staff were stacking containers. This carried on all night from time to time. Very poor.
