The available breakfast was very tasty.
For breakfast, you need to cater for patrons that do not consume pork and beef.

We stayed in a suit which was great, clean, nice coffee machine.
Location to get around is great but if you are a light sleeper, it gets loud. We were woken up a lot with people shouting, making noise leaving restaurants and pubs, last one was at three in the morning. We did stay over a Saturday night so during the week it might be quieter.

Location is perfect.
Breakfast options are very limited for people who don't eat pork and beef. Room is clean. Toilet designed very bad as the door hit the toilet seat when you open it. And its the second time that i booked there in different rooms and the toilet roll holder don't work.
