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! :)

I enjoyed my 1 night stay there. The rooms and all other places are clean and smart. It has a nice view in the door front. Staff were friendly and informative. I can recommend this place even for longer stays.
