The hotel is conveniently located for access to the city center and Piccadilly train station, but the rooms are on the smaller side and have some basic amenities. The service was friendly, but there were some issues with acknowledgment and documentation during check-in.

The hotel rooms were a bit compact and had broken facilities, making it less comfortable than expected.
