8/10 Very good

We stayed for over a week and the staff provided excellent services. They were able to accommodate our special requests, which gave us peace of mind. We especially appreciated Kamille and Lorena, who made us feel welcome, and the manager, Rez, who approved our requests. While it would be nice to have a gym on-site, there’s one just a 5-minute walk away that offers short-term memberships.

Easy check in. Rooms very clean and functional. Central location.
Karen, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Pretty good, and for the price I cant complain. However it is very noisy in the room, to the point where with the window closed you can hear word for word conversations outside
Rhys, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

A little on the shabby side. Coil whine from the electrics all night, old and only partially functioning TV. Badly designed room layouts. I can see what they were trying to do, but they seem to have cut too many corners. If you’re on a strict budget, then fine, but pay a bit more and you’ll get a lot more.
James, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Not what exepcted.

Hotel was nice, lobby and bar is lovely lots of effor put into it. Self check-in with no personalisation. The room is nice on first look, booked a no window room and got a window room, wasnt tok fussed. By the time i got to bed my son was asleep, realised the curtains did not fully cover the windows and they had holes in them. As you spend more time in the room you realise its not fully clean, dirt on the bottom of the 'pod' and dust everywhere. Overall wasn't the worst, just appeared more attention on the front and not the actual room.
Sammie-Joe, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Overall excellent just 1 addtion would be tea and coffee where filled an ready touse
Rob, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Awful service

Stay itself was fine. The self serve check in & out was a nightmare. Card machines not pronting receipts properly on check in, and no invoice sent to me upon checkout. I have rang and rang, emailed and used the contact form on the website and just cannot get in touch with the hotel. For this reason alone i would not recommend and would not stop here again.
Laura, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

The hotel, its interior, and the staff were okay. However, we were dissatisfied for two main reasons. Firstly, the room did not have a window, which was not ideal. Secondly, the hotel did not provide us with an option to store our suitcases after checking out. When we inquired, we were told that they do not have a dedicated luggage storage room. We then asked if we could leave our suitcases in the lobby, where staff are always present, but this was also not allowed. The staff explained that the hotel would be closed at midday for cleaning, which we found puzzling—wouldn’t staff still be present during this time? This lack of flexibility and consideration left us disappointed. Overall, it’s clear that the hotel does not prioritize customer needs. Unfortunately, we cannot recommend it.
