The room was clean, spacious and the bed was comfortable. Staff were very friendly and helpful and had a lot of local information. It was great to have a kitchen, which had everything you need, to make your own food. Very easy transport links (bus stop right outside the hotel) and a good location; very close to bars, restaurants and shops. Very cheap accommodation, very good value for money - I would highly recommend this hotel.

Overall area in poor condition, "Daily housekeeping" my room wasn't serviced at all over the 11 night stay. Shared Kitchen in poor condition and not well cleaned, room was nothing like photos. A cheap room with a comfortable bed, so was OK as a place to stay

Corridor spaces need a lot of cleaning. A good thorough clean is going to be easier to maintain for housekeeping staff and then be more pleasant for guests. However the room it self was great.

Great location, cheap which explains very poor kitchen facilities (almost no cooking equipment or crockery or cutlery, not even a tea towel to dry dishes, and cloth to wash dishes was dirty). Comfortable and clean bed and bathroom clean and ok.

Suitable for single men. Can party in the big rooms. Not suitable for families or anyone that needs to get a good night sleep. Location - Great. It's the only thing it has going for it.
