Basic hotel. walkable to the city centre and university. The parking is free for 24 hours. If you’re going to the stadium it’s probably ideal. The breakfast is free and basic.

Staff was excellent and co-operative. Only issue was their things getting broken and not getting fixed on time. For example their AC is still broken, coffee machines broken.

One night stop over - not great
Kids playing football in the corridor of level 5 - swearing in front of my kids. Room stunk of cigarettes. Large crack in the wall by the window. Breakfast was OK, not so good. Overall dissatisfied with the stay.

Breakfast both mornings was disappointing. Coffee machine didn’t work, little fruit compote available, difficult trying to get staff to help as they were busy dealing with machine malfunctions. The bar wasn’t particularly well stocked and the lack of slimline options in drinks was not helpful for diabetic friends . No air conditioning in the hotel at all.
