I accidentally left my iPad in the room, fortunately, their staff called me to remind me to retrieve it. Their service was truly outstanding, and I am very grateful for their help. The location was also excellent, within walking distance to the city center. I highly recommend their exceptional service and hospitality!

I'd stay here again. I was fortunate to be sharing with three ladies who were all clean, friendly, and considerate. They were from different parts of the world too so it was great to Talk about that too.

Didn’t like the fact that the shower suddenly stopped working half way through so had to use sink water to rinse myself but other than that everything was fine.

Great place, good room, although it is close to two main train lines and tram routes, but we were so tired after a busy day we fell straight to sleep - Room was very warm as it is June and there are signs asking guests to leave the windows open for ventilation (Which I suspect are from Covid days and not to keep you cool); We left one window open as the noise from outside would have been too much otherwise. Mattresses are basic, but comfortable - Bedding is provided, as are clothes hangers, an electric free standing fan (Too noisy to leave on whilst asleep) toilet roll and hand soap. We had the Continental Breakfast for £6 PP - Bargain and worth the price! :)
