The staff were lovely and the room was clean.

The noise from the pub below went on quite late. The bass thumped right through the floor.

uneven stay near the city center

pub noiseawkward shower

The room was clean enough, i suppose, but the noise at night was a real issue. the pub downstairs meant loud chatter and music went on past midnight. it made getting a decent night's sleep difficult. also, the bathroom setup was odd. The shower was just a tap on the bath, this made washing a bit awkward.
