Nice hotel close to Southbank

Front desk service from Dominic ( I think ) was excellent nice young man who treated us politely and was very informative. Room was one bedroom roomy comfortable Kitchen with all that was needed, washing machine dryer and carpark available although found this expensive considering the price for the accommodation for the three nights we stayed. Location was good but I’m more an other side of City Rd person.
