"The hotel is in a great location! It’s got a clean, modern feel. Parking costs £10 a day. The only issue we had was the shower design. Half of the shower in our room was covered with glass, but with no door, the bathroom floods every time. Feels like it could be fixed with a simple addition of a shower door."
