Very good.

I had a very nice stay here. The location is great, the room was spotless and the bed incredibly comfortable. Charlie’s Angels who run the front desk are fantastic. Friendly, cheerful and very professional. The only negatives I could mention are the check in and out times and the water pressure isn’t the best in the shower, however I will definitely stay here again.

Room was very basic student accomodation. No TV and no extras. Very clean but claustrophobically small. One double bed so only really suitable for couples. Ideal location so served its purpose

This was advertised as an aparthotel. This is Infact a student dorm!! Shared kitchen though it comes across as your own kitchen on the Expedia advertisement. Used shampoo and conditioner in bathroom and no bag for the one garbage can. Horribly humid and hot.

This is not so much a hotel but a hostel in a sketchy neighbourhood. Loud, dirty room, and lots of damage in the room. Drunken fights in the courtyard in the middle of the night too made for a rough stay.

Liked: Cleanliness

Very central but small room

We arrived about 11.30pm. The reception was open and well lit. The hotel was easy to find and central. We were given instructions on how to find our room. We got to our room, lovely and spacious, however it hadn’t been cleaned from the previous guest- beds unmade, bin overflowing and wet towels on the floor in the bathroom. We went back to reception, the man apologised and took us to another room. The next room was fine; but it was about half the size of the first room which was disappointing. I also hadn’t realised this was student accommodation.
