"The room was recently decorated, spotlessly clean and comfortable. The only other facilities were a couple of vending machines. There was someone in reception when I arrived which was fortunate as I hadn’t been sent the door code. Road noise was disturbing if the windows were open, despite my room being at the back of the building. Overall rather expensive for a functional place to stay but available at short notice and convenient for the people I was visiting."
