My stay at the hotel was a good alternative as it was significantly cheaper, even though the room was small and noisy due to its proximity to the train station. The bathroom had great options for bath and shower, which was a plus.

The hotel is conveniently located right across from Bradford Interchange Station, which was fabulous for us. The rooms were good-sized though a bit noisy in the morning, needing a bit of maintenance. The service was friendly overall but had some amateurish moments. The dining experience was a little disappointing due to delays and limited options. The location was fantastic for us, although the shower temperature was a bit tricky to adjust. Overall, a mixed experience with some highlights and room for improvement.

When I arrived at the hotel, the room was nice and equipped with useful facilities, but it was let down by some maintenance issues like marked walls and ceiling indicating past leaks. The private bathroom was a nice touch, and the luxurious bath was a pleasant surprise. The cleanliness was good, but the maintenance could be improved.

The hotel is set in a very central location, just a few minutes' walk from the Interchange, making it perfect for exploring the city highlights. While the rooms were okay, they were starting to show signs of wear and tear. The service was generally helpful and friendly, although the welcome lacked a personal touch. The dining options were shocking, with some improvements needed in the food presentation. Despite that, the location is excellent, and the staff, overall, were friendly and accommodating.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were subject to extreme noise from a wedding disco until 3 am, which was quite disruptive, but on the positive side, the location was central in town, making it convenient for exploring the area.

My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The rooms were cozy and tastefully decorated, although a bit warm with no air conditioning or windows that could be opened. The highlight was the delicious and value-for-money meal we had during our visit, the best I've had in years.

The hotel has big rooms that are laid out well and clean, very close to the station, but noisy due to public transport outside. The service was friendly and very helpful, with a small issue of dangerous proximity and dismissive behavior. The location is superb, seconds from Interchange and in the city center, near St Georges Hall with a car park. The dining was tasty but not up to standard, with a mix-up in the order. Overall, a convenient place with a few minor drawbacks.

The hotel had a nice arrival experience with useful facilities and impeccable cleanliness, but the excessive heat made the room very uncomfortable on this hot summer day. The service was a mix of friendly and accommodating encounters, but there were some letdowns at the bar. The central location was ideal for various attractions, especially the nearby theater. The dining options offered a mix of very nice meals but with some room for improvement. Overall, a mix of positives and negatives to consider.
