"Easy check in and clean room. Only issue was the parking. There is no free parking on site. Next door NCP parking is £15 per night, this has to be validated by the hotel."

"Great location, easy free parking, they had provided items that were not always available in much more expensive rooms. We will stay again if we are in the area."

"Hotel advertised as 24h reception. I arrived after midnight and after waiting for 10min outside someone came to open the door. Proceeded to complain that they were closed. Wanted to charge me £10 for the late check in. When I refused I was called a (profanity) and handed the key in furry. Terrible experience. "

"The apartment is very conveniently located in the heart of Leicester. It didn’t take us long to walk to anywhere in the city. Lovely decor and super modern. Had all the facilities we needed, full kitchen, living area and double bedroom.
The only downsides were that the bathroom had a really strong drain smell and then in a morning we’d get food smells in the kitchen that seemed to be coming through from other apartments. These are more building issues rather than the stay itself though. The listing also makes it sound like parking is included in the visit, but it isn’t. We ended up paying around £50 to park in the multi-storey opposite."

"The location was excellent for a city stay, however, some maintenance issues were noted and communication problems.
I messaged to confirm my stay and request what to expect on my arrival. I had no response. So i was actually starting to get anxiety.
Upon arrival, they appeared to have some difficulty locating our information, and even after they claimed to have found it, we had to correct them on the number of guests and nights of our stay. Panicking me again. We were also unaware of the £100 deposit requirement.
Building
The doorbell was loose, making entry to the property somewhat difficult. (Wasnt told the code to enter the building). The digital keypad on the room's door was unresponsive, the door itself did not feel secure and neither was code to enter the room. Unfortunately, the large shower head fell, striking my toe; I am uncertain if it is broken. The toilet was also loose. No blind on bathroom window. The bed sheets had stains, which appeared to be rust. The walls were thin. I would not recommend the sofa bed for a group of six people.
I have a few personal observations. The entrance had an unpleasant odor of marijuana. The hight of the bedroom mirror was too high, i 5ft3 and couldn't us it. Disappointed no full length mirror either. Didn't like all the unsecure wires around the tv.
Aside from these points, the apartment itself smelled clean and was not dusty. The hot water was very hot, and each room had a controllable radiator.
