The hotel was really clean and welcoming to enter. The front doors are locked at 9pm and accessible by key card to add security. The staff were all welcoming and friendly and very accomodating when we needed to leave luggage and get changed after the half marathon!

Very good hotel for staying near the West End, but without much late evening noise. The rooms themselves need updating. In our room there were no outlets or USB charging ports next to either side of the bed. We had to charge all our stuff at the desk (inconvenient). Good water pressure and hot water. Rooms also lack a mini fridge.
