Other than the [false] fire alarm @ 1am [a one-off, I'm sure] and the noise from the corridor fire door adjacent to the room, all else was well and the staff were very friendly and helpful

Very basic but cleanliness wasn't great. Convenient location. Uncomfortable beds. Fire alarm went off middle of night - understand this cannot always be helped when a false alarm however the situation poorly managed, no staff around to assist or indicate what to do. No apology etc.
