easy check indouble roombanging boiler
the staff were mainly friendly and the check in process was easy.
I was disappointed that i reserved a twin room but was given a double room. i wasn't told about this at arrival. I only realised it when i got to the room. also there was a boiler banging consistently through the night and it kept us awake.
