Great hotel stay.

This hotel is in a great location in Newcastle. It is handy to shops, the harbour, and the inner-city. The hotel is clean and has nice staff. I have stayed here several times when visiting Newcastle.

Ok. Staff a bit ‘all over the place’. Considerate. Breakfast included ok. Some things hard to find. Milk was away from tea and coffee? Room fine.
