Acceptable Stay Overall
great layout fantastic layout cozy room comfortable room great location amazing location chilly room cold room street noise outside noise glazing windows thin windows
The location was awesome for getting around! I especially liked that it was super close to the coach station. The pub had a fantastic layout. Everything worked out just fine in my cosy room!
The room I had was a little chilly! It was mostly because of the street noise. People were arguing and shouting outside at all hours. It sounded like they were right in the room with me!

some issues with noise and communication
thin windows check-in process
the noise level was quite frustrating. i could clearly hear street noise through the thin windows until late. also, the check-in process was confusing. the staff gave me conflicting instructions about accessing the hotel after hours. this miscommunication caused unnecessary hassle upon my return.
