"The room was more spacious as we've thought, spotless clean, close to bus stops but reaching the centre by foot is just 10-15 minutes anyway."

The location is very accessible from the bus stop. The bus stop was just outside the premises. Friendly staff were also present.

The room was very noisy because of the pub below. I found the noise especially noticeable during the weekend. The bathroom sink was also very small.
