Two night stay.
Perfect location for the station. Good wifi and helpful staff. Did not need parking and did not have breakfast. Did the job as described but it is a budget option, room has all essentials but no kettle or refrigerator. Fine for 1 or 2 nights but would not want to stay any longer .

Quick and basic
The room was fine basic but clean, the area wasn't great right next to the station and parking wasn't easy. If you want a quick night it's fine but if you are driving choose an out of town hotel

This place is right across from the train station so it was a necessary place to stay for 1 night . It was clean inside. Rooms are dated and the breakfast is not worth paying for. Not safe area so when you left you took all valuables but didn’t feel Safe walking around with them. Lots of loud fights and police constantly in the area. So no would not stay there again. Would take a cab from somewhere else. I see why they lock their front doors in the evening. The area is so dirty. Drug deals and people peeing on the street. Yuck Staff were lovely and helpful tho.

The staff at the property was so friendly and helpful. The woman who checked me in was very fast and efficient. The night man reminded where the internet code was. The day manager stored my bags while I toured the city. We talked about the area and the weather. The breakfast was very good and inexpensive. Thanks so much for a wonderful stay.

Book the other Ibis
It was okay for what was needed on a short stay. Area is a little dodgy, but at the end of a day a bed and shower and somewhere to change, personally recommend the other Ibis near this one

Hotel is in a fairly central location 9 mins from shops and the river. Hotel was basic but that is what the description said - we had a one night stay over an route to ferry - the area around the hotel appeared run down and there were some homeless / alcoholics just over the road - this would put me off saying again and not for children.
