7.6/10 Good! (6,045 reviews)
The Zedwell concept is sound for a one night stay in the city, but it was spoiled by the noise from the ventilation system which sounded like aircon on full blast and ran constantly, giving me a very disturbed night. I was in touch with the Zedwell team via WhatsApp but was basically told to shut the bathroom door (I already had) and that there was nothing else to be done. I found it really disruptive and only slept for about an hour at a time, resulting in me being very tired for the following day’s meetings. The location is great and the internal, sound proof rooms with no windows should have meant a very restful sleep, but unfortunately, due only to the noise from the ventilation, it was the opposite. Having stayed in the Premier Inn Hub before - same concept, different brand - I was disappointed and will go back to using them instead.
