Not a bad hotel considering the location. The breakfast vouchers for the refectory was good with ample food.
Not super easy to get things delivered there.

Great location, out of the way but still easily walkable to town centre. Adequate breakfast and student bar next door. Quiet enough considerimg it is on a uni campus next to the student union.
Onlybreal negative was heating controls didn't work properly so was freezing one night and boiling the next.

I stay in hotels for work at least three times a month. This was by far the best experience I had in the last year. Immaculately clean room, quiet, free WiFi and parking. Breakfast was included in the price. Very friendly staff, nice surroundings. Town centre in walking distance. Would highly recommend this place.
