Classic Ibis. Boxed ticked, slept well enough. Feels a bit like a dystopian future in here though where we are all robots with no personality

I really enjoyed my couple of days at the ibis style Hotel located on Duke Street. It was for business purposes however Mr.Martin has made it an absolute pleasure to work at this venue. Without him I don't think ibis would be as great. …
