The concierge was kind and helpful. The accommodation was as described. The decor is plain and a little battered. Cleanliness pretty good but a bit lacking in detail in some of the crevices. Overall it is good value. Excellent location. Reasonably central, but quiet.

We always stay in cheap and cheerful accommodation and have low expectations. Our stay was very quiet and the shower was lovely. We did not stay longer due to all the cockroaches and crawling bugs throughout the cupboards and crawling in the bed. There was power point hanging dangerously out of the wall. There was an unsatisfactory redneck behaviour of other guests spitting over the balconies and throwing rubbish over too. It’s such a lovely spot and a gorgeous historical building however.
