I checked in Bert late in the evening and it was quick and easy. The room was very spacious but had a water leak near the front door so there was a dripping sound all night. The smoke alarm was not fitted and was hanging from the ceiling.

Good enough for the price paid. Unfortunately the room next to ours very noisy all night until 4am. We did not rest well. Room quirky. Beds comfortable. Some interesting characters getting around in what look like long stay accomodation. Did the job for the 1 night needed.
