Good location
Nice comfy beds and a very convenient location for working at events in the city.
They didn’t change the sheets as often as we needed even when we asked one day, it didn’t end up being done

Bristol weekend break
The location was great, service great, breakfast great. The only let down was the cleanliness of the bathroom as it had an ambulant disabled bathroom which was a wet room but unfortunately you could see the scum marks around the edges of the coved flooring. Just needs a good scrubbing. But apart from that it was great.

Overall it's a good hotel.
Pros:
Smooth check in/checkout
Convenient location
Friendly staff
You can leave luggage before check in and after check out, which is great
Taxi button in Reception
Clean room, comfy bed and air conditioning
Cons:
A group of people were running around the corridor for about half an hour from 3am one morning which interrupted my sleep. I informed Reception straight away but there was no reply or action.
The bathroom door didn't shut properly.

Good central hotel.
Super central, discount parking, decent sized room: confy beds, good shower. Lovely food nearby. We had a great stay. There are no bells and whistles, and we didn't need them being so central!
