Four Points Flex by Sheraton Newcastle
Room was clean enough, small bathroom but fine for one night. Surprisingly quiet given the location and it being a Saturday, but I think this was due to being in a room that didn't overlook the road. Didn't opt for breakfast as felt the price was a bit much given the photos don't show a great deal ...
