Cheap but basic

This is student accommodation. It's like half way between a hostel and a hotel. The room had a bit of a smell, the mattress was lumpy, everything was about functionality rather than 'being nice'. The place was clean enough and cheaper than hotels. If you want to save money, and are OK with the basics, it's fine. It's noisy. I recommend ear plugs for sleeping, which are free at reception.

This was one of the worst hotel experiences I’ve ever had. Upon arrival, we were given a filthy room (unacceptable at any price). The staff moved us to another room, but it was like sleeping in a cardboard box—zero soundproofing, constant noise (slamming doors, loud guests), and no sleep at all. No apology or compensation could make up for the lack of basic cleanliness, poor room quality, and terrible sleep. Save yourself the stress and book elsewhere.

Poor level of cleanliness

Grubby and poorly maintained accommodation, walls and furniture were surface cleaned (wiped over with a spray and a cloth) but not properly cleaned, with evidence of heavy use over time e.g. finger marks, scuffing, grease etc which could easily be cleaned with the correct cleaning materials. There were no mattress or pillow protectors under the bed linen, which I would expect to be standard, in particular at this price point. Communal areas, especially bathroom and toilet areas, were not cleaned daily; every 2 days at best, which for an area with up to 8 different people using is concerning and unhygienic. There was no provision of a bathmat, or a mop to use to protect and clean the wet bathroom floors.

Functional & Comfortable

If you are looking for a basic, easy place to stay, within walking distance to everything, this place ticks the boxes. The amenities are very basic however it was helpful to have a washing machine. Bed was okay, definitely not as bad as some reviews I have read on here but two adults sharing would be a stretch. Overall pleasant stay, staff are excellent and helpful.
