Where do I even begin with this place?! Absolutely amazing, staff were amazing, it's very downtown, rooms are immaculate, facilities are amazing (pool room, state of the art kitchen, showers etc). The fact the have men's sport soap in the showers that smells amazing is class. Rooms are so cosy and warm, it's so cheap. The best thing, they're non for profit and they're so so environmentally friendly. Would recommend and I will definitely visit again!!
