Reviews (8.5 Excellent)
Very conveniently located and easy to find. Earliest time for check is 2PM, so not good for early arrivals,some were sleeping on the sofas, before that. Staff were pleasant but unaccomodating. Rooms and bedding were clean but the room had a sweaty smell as in a changing room/gym locker. There were only 2 showers and 2 toilets in total. Breakfast offered with cereal and toasts, but area was very small and crammed to accomodate everyone.
