The walls were paper thin. It wasn't even a case of next door being particularly loud, we could hear them walking around, moving chairs, television on. It was the same for the neighbours on the other side. You will NOT get a good nights sleep at this hotel. Our room was looking out at a alley/entry with bins. The staff were nice enough - we didn't ask anything from them but they were nice. Food for breakfast was awful, maybe okay for someone else but we couldn't eat anything from it. The reception area is small and clean but the shower in our room had black mould. It was cheap enough but certainly not 4* and if I had known you would be able to hear every footstep from the rooms next door and above, I would never had booked. Until they completely sound proof the place, it's a 1 star hotel for me. Being able to sleep without hearing EVERYTHING around you is a pretty important aspect of booking a hotel for me. Not much in the surrounding area either, hotel located in a side street, a couple of takeaways and bakerys but nothing of significance located near by.
