Rooms at the front of property are noisy, traffic and late night passersby. Manager very helpful and friendly. Yes, I would stay there again but would request a Room on the back as I am a light sleeper. ##### Helen Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2025 ### 4/10 Poor #### James 6 Dec 2025 Liked: Staff & service Seeing a 9.2 rating on Expedia set a very improper expectation (Ritz and Hilton level quality) as the reality was much different. Staff were friendly and location was good but that’s about where the positives end. The single rooms are INCREDIBLY small, even for European standards (expect something like a dorm or hostel). Heat was intermittent. Busy street so it quite loud through the evening. No real desk or work station. Backpacking across the UK? This is likely fine Travelling for Business? No way ##### James Stayed 1 night in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sayed Hossain 6 Sept 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The stay was good.
