An acceptable stay.
friendly staff comfy bed small room small shower
The staff was friendly. They took in our luggage until check-in. The bed was comfy and I got a great night's sleep even though the room was above a bar. Breakfast the next morning was lovely, and the staff was very helpful.
The room I stayed in was way too small.

clean room stocked room comfy bed tiny lift old decor unusual smell
the room was very clean. it was well stocked with everything i needed for my stay. the bed was comfy (i slept really well).
the lift is tiny. i chose to use the stairs instead. the decor on the landings needed updating, it felt a bit 'faulty towers'. the air freshener had an unusual smell that i didn't particularly like.
