Nice staff. Room was very small but comfortable. Bath room was even smaller, especially the sink. The shower was relatively large and nice.||A tram station is nearby, also some nice pubs and restaurants. Walking to the city center is possible if you don't mind a little walk.

Management is not kind and understandable!!!I had a booking on 07 Oct which was paid a month ago and I had to cancel the booking due to a genuine medical condition. Myself cancelled the booking on 5 Oct evening itself. Sent couple of messages to the property to seek refund as I got refunds from other two hotels even the booking was non refundable.They simply declined the request !!! Said the booking has cancelled within 48 hours, It was non refundable booking.I literally begged them for the money to consider on a humanitarian basis but they don’t even care. I told them what is the medical condition but no use. They have a business mind not a kind one. Sad !!!

The rooms are dated and in need of a full refurbish and the walls are very thin you can hear the taps running from the next room. …

I already had an idea of this hotel before booking so I was not that negatively surprised. I just wanted to pay as less as possible that is why I went for this hotel. …

Worst place to stay over meant to be a bed and breakfast with no breakfast !! I paid for it but was a con ! The place was dirty pillows were yellow and stained . Don't waste your money very disappointing . She told me was only a5 minute walk to the tattoo was half an hour. Worst experience we've ever had for a night away . Absolutely disgusting !! Tattoo great

This is more a half way house than a hotel or bed and breakfast - there is no breakfast! ||The bed is good. The shower is good. The carpet is horrific. The floors and walls are paper thin. …
