Room was a revelation - a huge upgrade on a travelodge/Premier Inn room and 25% cheaper. Staff were great, room modern and clean and the bed very comfortable. TV was a decent size too. Overall tip-top!

We arrived quite late, but Anisoara had everything organised — the keys, the access code, and clear directions. The room itself was very comfortable, with a large bed, good-quality bedding, and a proper full-size bath. Because the hotel sits on a pedestrian street, it was peaceful throughout the night and we slept really well.

Although we arrived later in the evening, Anisoara had everything sorted — clear instructions, keys ready, and the entry code sent straight over. The room was comfortable with a big bed and great sheets, plus a full-size bath. Being down a pedestrian street meant it was very quiet, and we had a solid night’s sleep.

Room was disappointing. Window couldn’t open and glass was opaque, felt like being in a closet. Bad sewage smell. No bath. No tea bags. Was messaged to ask when I was coming to check in because they wanted to leave early, and in the morning housekeeping pestered me before check-out

We needed accommodation in the city for me to attend meetings and my husband to do some touristy things. The B and H was really convenient for both of us, friendly and met our needs price wise. In all very happy with our choice.

Guided to our room, given no information other than the key. No fridge, no ice, no waters, nor information on how to check out. Found multiple hairs in the sheets, and a dead bug. The shower doesn’t drain at all…water got all over the bathroom. The bar downstairs also no longer serves food. I would not recommend staying here.

Fair stay, good location, great staff

The good: location, amazing staff, early checkin, bag storage, bed really comfy, flat screen, amenities and really good cookies! The bad: staircases, it’s an old building so understandable but very tricky to go down, the curtains won’t block all the light, very noisy area and if you have a light sleep I’d recommend some noise canceling solution. The ugly: the sink had its drain fully closed, I had to unscrew it for the water to run and then a terrible smell came out of it, the shower heads looks like were never cleaned from the build up calcium, the air vent in the toilet was also full of build up dust.

The room was above the Pub in a nice alleyway. After work hours there was a mob outside and a bit noisy until 10:30pm. I knew that could be the case, so it did not bother me. The beer was cold! Per the web the pub was supposed to have food, but this was not the case. Otherwise, I may have given 5 Stars. However, there were plenty of other options in the area. A great stay.
