Overall good clean property with excellent super king size bed and complimentary coffee machine. Room was clean , roomy and tidy, was cold so hotel provided heater but the blanket provided very poor and smelled badly. The property is near bars and clubs so will get noise , and from bikers but ear plugs no problem. Overall good experience.

Full price for a property under full renovation. Staff were wonderful as always but they should be telling customers that the property is super filthy and noisy, with dozens of workers on site
