"I stayed here for one night while up in Leeds for some meetings and it was a very comfortable and pleasant place to be, conveniently located for the city center and station. The staff were all excellent, very helpful and welcoming. The room itself was a good size and with decent views. The only minor complaint is the floor was a bit dirty in the room, no big issue though and everything else was on point. Will stay again next time I'm in the city."
