flat pillows room noise

The location was very good with local pubs right next door! Everything was within walking distance.

The pillows felt old, flat, and generally uncomfortable. Replacements were needed. I also found it quite noisy because people kept using the toilets during the night, and I struggled to sleep well.

basic but some issues

breakfast replenishment limited supplies

the breakfast wasn't properly replenished. i returned after a day out to find the room untouched. the kitchen had limited supplies. another guest had to share their breakfast. it was frustrating paying for breakfast i didn't receive.

lovely stay!

stocked fridge quick check-in fresh linen

the mini fridge was really well stocked with breakfast items. thomas checked me in quickly and easily! the fans in the room really came in handy. the linen and towels smelled fresh!

The tv didn't work. Other guests used the washing machine late at night, a bit disruptive!

fridge compact refrigerator tea beverage great location broken shower faulty shower id photo busy road

i stayed in a room that had a fridge and a sink. it included a kettle with tea and coffee. the location was great because it was within walking distance to the city centre.

the shower holder was broken in the larger shower room. my id was photographed at check-in, this was unexpected. the room was at the front and i experienced noise from the busy road.
