Shorty stay
Short break in Newcastle. We normally book the Urban King but tried the Harbour King this time. Apart from being on higher floor, view isn’t much better. In fact the layout of the Urban King is preferable.

Hotel was lovely, but wasn’t aware you had to prepay for parking. Had to park in the streets and had to keep moving the car.
