I've been staying here for about three months on and off now.
The rooms are nice and usually well kept, some of the basement rooms have a scent to them, but the hotel do their best to mask that.
The staff are always as helpful as they can be though at check in peak times its best to stick with checking in only.
The breakfast served is good, the only negative on the food is the setting, an enclosed basement that feels a little clinical.
The showers and heating can be hit and miss. The heating tends to operate better during colder spells and the showers are very temperamental on the rooms over the road - these however, are superior in quality to the rooms in the main building.
Overall - a good hotel.
