No TV, poor wifi, hot water ran out very quickly, no lift, doors hard to open with only 1 key, windows easily accessed from outside. On positive side, cleanish and quieter than expected. Close to restaurant and cafes.

Very basic room. Needed to request housekeeping and fresh towels. The bar downstairs incredibly noisy at night with the crowd exiting and shouting in the streets after closing making it very difficult to sleep. The cigarette smoke from downstairs also infiltrated the room making difficult to breathe properly. Friendly staff.
