It was lovely to stay at a college. I studied at a different college a long time ago and this one is quite tucked away, in my day we called it Sidney Sainsbury's as it's opposite the supermarket!

An excellent stay in this neutral college. The room was spacious, meticulously clean and the staff were warm and welcoming. Will be a regular!

Nice clean room. Might be a bit loud in warmer months with windows open as it is in the city centre, but convenient. Excellent breakfast.

It’s not a hotel, but the folks at the Porter’s Lodge could try to be a little nicer and more helpful—especially with a guest of the university! This would require very minimal additional effort
