Home turf. I first climbed in Bear Rock when I was about nine at a friend's birthday party in Primary School and I think I haven't been able to get it out of my head since.

Pros:
Very well staffed so it feels very safe in there.
If you are a club member you can hire all the gear on club nights.
I hear the overhang on the comp wall is a good one but I am yet to reach that level of climbing.
For rookies like me there are still loads of options for toproping and leading. There are also now auto belay options.
Cons:
The bouldering wall is quite small, see my expertly done panorama, so it is one where you really have to watch out for climbers falling from the sky.
I spend most of my time in the bouldering room. Hours between meetings? Boulder. No bus home for a while? Boulder. Fancy having a sit down somewhere soft? Boulder. Want to be social for a bit? Boulder. Got a problem I just can't stop thinking about? Boulder.
