Property was clean, everything worked as it should. Front staff were very courteous and let us store our bags for the day until check in. Property was very close to the cruise ports and train or coach stations so very handy. Would stay here again.

This is a budget hotel, we got what we expected. Nothing fancy, nothing extra, just the basics.
Close to cruise terminal, and local needs, close to tourist exploration.
Very cool town wish we stayed in town a few extra days
The room was clean with comfortable bed. The size is very small as it is a very budget accommodation. The carpets are old and need updating but the rooms do not have carpets so they are clean. The staff is very friendly and accommodating. One night is okay for a stay but probably not more than that. Not really comfortable to stay in.
The property is okay if you’re using it for an overnight stay before boarding a cruise. It is definitely conveniently located to the cruise port. The staff was helpful with giving us the information for a taxi service which was affordable for a 6 passenger. We reserved it the night before. The hotel staff also had information about which port we would be leaving out of for our ship. Sky princess left out of mayflower 106. They don’t have amenities in the room such as a blow dryer but had one at the desk, same with an iron.
Just got off a 5 week cruise with 7 cases and was able to check in our room at 9.30am instead of 3pm was very happy

For my one-night, pre-cruise stay it was sufficient - clean bed, quiet - but the hotel is older and looking a little long in the tooth (scaffolding outside the front of the hotel didn't help - but I suppose that's a good sign that they're maintaining/updating the property). On check-in they gave my room to another guest (other than an awkward encounter, with both of us going back down to the front desk, it was no problem). Passed on the breakfast - they said it can be hit-or-miss (in terms of food remaining) and (in my opinion) was pricey for what you got. But if you're leaving from the Horizon Cruise Terminal it's really hard to beat - less than a half-mile walk from the lobby to boarding ship - and it's about that same difference to walk to the center of town. Based on location alone I'd recommend and stay there again if in Southampton.
Really good experience for the price, it exceeded our expectations, staff lovely car park excellent and somewhere close by to eat, really well placed for the port and night before a cruise.

Staff were lovely. Room had seen better days - table warping, blind chain snapped... The breakfast was reassuringly awful.
