The team were excellent and very helpful, and were able to help us with an early check-in.
The common areas are warm and inviting, it was a great place to sit and grab a drink (highly recommend the espresso martinis at the bar!).
The room was modern, clean(er than most places) and comfortable, the amenities were basic but had everything we needed for a one night stay. If you have a lot of luggage or are staying for more than a few nights, I would recommend booking a bigger room - however, the size of our double room was as expected for such a centrally located property and did not bother us at all.
A good night's sleep and in a great location for sightseeing, restaurants, and The Academy venue.
Great value for money!
