I’m not one to write a bad review, but after our horrible experience in this hotel, and being ignored on email and booking.com when complaining, I want to share our experience. ||We booked a 3 night stay. …

The single room was tiny but had everything needed - mirror, TV, shampoo/bath gel, hygienic bags, hairdryer, a chair, a table, clothes hanger. The bed size is ok, very soft and clean linens. …

Pretty strange to arrive and be told, "here's the key, don't lose it as I'm going away and you won't be able to enter without it". I guess this means that there's no night reception. It's a simple place where you get a room and nothing else. The room was ok.

We were catching a train the next morning so wanted somewhere nearby that would not cost the earth. The hotel was clean and comfortable - no frills but absolutely fine for a few hours sleep. …

This is not a fancy place to stay, but it is definitely the right price and it's well kept and clean. Don't expect large rooms. It's a place you stay when you expect to tour the city, not be lazy in the hotel. …

We stayed 2 nights. It's a good place to sleep, I loved the bed and pillows are also fine. What I didn't really understand is the size of the shower room. One person can barely turn around, there is not enough air, the floor gets wet in seconds... Really uncomfortable.

Decent sized room that was comfortable and clean but the bathroom was very small. The shower opened out to the toilet with basically no room to spare. Towels were hanging to dry over the toilet so make sure you close it. The shower temperature kept changing from very hot to slightly cold. Had good Wifi speeds but we had issues with the power. Turned on a light and suddenly lost power to the whole room, only other devices were a phone charging and a small TV. Add the fact that there is nobody working the front desk after 8pm and we had to go find the breaker panel and reset it our selves. The hotel itself was quiet but the street below was not. We had a room facing out onto the street and even with the windows closed, we could still hear the traffic below.
