Not four star quality
For a 4 star hotel the room was of quite a basic standard. Although the room and the bathroom were very spacious, the decor was dated, the bedlinen basic, the lighting was poor and the thermostat didn't work properly so the room was quite cold. There were no blankets in the room so I had to ask for one and I was given another duvet instead. The tea/coffee making facilities were also very basic indeed.

Very convenient location for the Utilitia Arena, the standard room was very basic like a travelodge not a 4 star hotel, best thing was the lovely bathroom, however it was clean and warm, breakfast was alright too.
