On a last minute deal, the hotel is good value for the central location, it is 'no frills' but that is to be expected for the price point. Check in and out simple and no issues; bed clean and comfy, bathroom and decor needs refreshing but for the price point its 'fair'

Not value for money as I am concerned. Paid £228 for two nights - the room had no kettle or tea making facilities, there was no water. The bathroom was tiny and had no shower curtain. Will not be coming back

the floor was quite loud but probably because we’re on the top floor. only reason i put 4 stars was because there’s no lift and we had to carry all our luggages from ground to 3rd floor. otherwise it’s all good stay

The reception staff were not very attentive when we arrived. The radiator in our room was stuck 'on', couldn't be switched off - on such a mild night it made the room very hot. There were no tea-making facilties provided in the room which is standard in UK hotels - this had not been explained in the information when booking, and for the price paid made it very poor value. There is no breakfast at this hotel either. Very disappointing.
