  We booked a day pass for my sister's birthday. Pool, lunch and a room to change in. Great value compared with a night.

  Came straight off an overnight bus and needed to look presentable for a wedding. Check-in was quick and the room was spotless.

  Booked three hours in the middle of the day just to sleep. Exactly what I needed, with no awkward questions.

  Used it for interviews with candidates. The staff brought tea and kept the corridor quiet. Will book again.
