The bedding is super soft and cosy, but you only get one very thin pillow. Lovely private room with plenty of space, but bring ear plugs as the doors all bang loudly late at night and early in the morning. Basic free breakfast (toast, cereal, and oats) but it’s often put out later than they say (9-9:30 rather than 8:30). I like the location near K’Road and the views of the city from the top floors are amazing. I have stayed here twice now and would come back as I know what to expect and it’s a good price for what you get.

Friendly, helpful staff member on arrival. Room and ensuite were impeccably clean. We would have preferred if there was more furniture like a couple of armchairs and another bedside table but understand it's fairly budget friendly accommodation

Was happy with the staff at United..unfortunately not so impressed with 'wotif' ( third party booking ).. Got to United only to find there was no room available ( one i had book 2 months in advance)..Had booking references Numbers and whats more ..i actually rang the hotel 2 minutes after i had made the booking ( just to confirm) and they said yes all is fine?? After a 45 minute wait while staff located us a room we had somewhere to stay..( myself and my two sons) one of which was flying out the next day to Australia for 6 months, so was a very important stay for me with my boys..(All up from chch for the night) to see Coldplay and farewell a son/brother . Needless to say i will not be using a third party booking agency again..
