First impression was the hotel clean and tidy. My friend and I choose twin room option. I personally didnt get much sleep due to the mattress, there was no support, and the springs were pertruding, making it a very nosiy and uncomfortable night.

It’s a very basic B&B, I choose it because of the location, the receptionsit was very helpful, no problems there, but the room is quite small, the beds are terrible, there is mould on the bathroom wall, and stains on the towel. It’s not the best value for money, considering other options in the city, but it was about right for me purely because of the location just a 5 minute walk from the Mattioli Arena where I had business to do during my stay.

Small clean room, area not so great

For the price it is okay but it is a walk from the city centre and feels like it is in a rough area. Have to call to be let in and don’t agree with having to provide photo ID as this isn’t required in the UK Suspect the property is primarily used by the council to house immigrants or homeless as the info leaflet says they’ll let local authorities know if you get kicked out for any reason. Room was surprisingly clean but small, mattress was thin and could feel the springs. When I arrived I didn’t think I would actually stay but it was clean enough and the inside is much better than the outside.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort

Fine for one night

Positives: the reception man was nice and the location was very easy to get to. Negatives: the room smelled bad, there was mould in the bathroom, and one of my pillows had mascara on. Additionally, the room was very cold, and the bed was not comfortable. Unfortunately the people in the room next door were very loud and woke me up at 5am- obviously not the fault of the hotel itself but another reason for a restless night. I don’t think I would stay again.

Great value for money

The room had everything I needed & was pretty clean. En-suite shower (no bath but I prefer a shower anyway), sink & toilet were clean & in good condition. Kettle with coffee& tea options were fine & the TV had the usual free digital channels. I've paid a lot more for poorer rooms.

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.

Budget room very close to the city centre

Excellent location being only a ten minute walk into the city centre. A very reasonable price too and friendly staff on check in with good communication before we arrived. The only two down sides were that the matresses were not comfortable at all and were two single beds pushed together to make a double. Also, the room was quite light (for us) at night because of the type of blind. Those two things feel quite easy to fix though and other than those issues, it suited us well.
