We were on second floor, you can hear the underground, but it stops at midnight and didn't disturb us. The rooms are basic but very clean and comfortable. There is a kettle close to the rooms with tea/coffee facilities. Also useful water dispenser and vending machine. Staff were extremely friendly and helpful. There was scaffolding and builders outside at the time of our stay, which were noisy, but luckily they didn't work over the weekend."
