The pods were good, the bathroom was clean & shower good, both felt new. The keypad to get in the building was temperamental & took many attempts to get in each time, whereas the room one was good. The entrance & stairs looked rundown, which was the opposite of the room. Really good value & free overnight street parking round the corner. No facilities on site but, suited my purpose this time as i was out all the time.

Poor check in

We couldn’t get in the hotel. Door was locked with key code. Code not given. Called support they gave me a mobile number to ring. No one answered after multiple calls. Sent them WhatsApp message no answer I’d like a full refund as I had to go to a different hotel.

The power to the lights went out so tried to contact them with the numbers provided but no luck. The shower was Luke warm. And we had to use our phone torches to shower.

It was one of the worst places I’ve ever been. I had paid for a double bed room, I was greeted with a bunk bed as the option for sleeping. As soon as I walked into the room, I could smell urine, the overall cleanliness of the room was terrible.

The studio

Great cheap and cheerful. Couldn’t fault it. Except very noisy people in the room next door which spoilt it. But great value in a very central area

No information about how to access the building. There's no desk attendant or any staff there and the phone number given the choir that I call Expedia to get verification that I have a confirmation. I was outside on a cold rainy night trying to make phone calls to get in.
