Stayed on the first floor (keep in mind for the negative bit later). Beds were good enough and comfortable. Per bed, there were great functional lights, 2 USB ports and a 2-pin plug for all your needs. The bathroom was perfectly alright, albeit cramped.

The reception staff were generally helpful and friendly. Props to them for Christmas work too.

If you're thinking of staying here, you really ought to know about the music.

The thing warranting a 1-star was the absolutely ridiculous noise and music coming from the club downstairs. It's 1.30am and hasn't stopped. No one in the room can sleep. Extra bass too. I felt it in my bed, heh. Could be because of the first floor room and the sheer proximity. Really, Generator? I'm surprised it wasn't brought up before.

Perhaps it's just a couple of rooms affected by this music madness and we got the short straw. Or that it's a Christmas thing. If you could guarantee during booking that your room wouldn't be affected by this, by all means get this place. It's extremely convenient and located next to the HBF.

TLDR; rooms were pretty alright, but the music is an absolute no-no. Sorry Generator, do take note of this. Merry Christmas.
