I'd stay here again. I was fortunate to be sharing with three ladies who were all clean, friendly, and considerate. They were from different parts of the world too so it was great to Talk about that too.

Great place, good room, although it is close to two main train lines and tram routes, but we were so tired after a busy day we fell straight to sleep - Room was very warm as it is June and there are signs asking guests to leave the windows open for ventilation (Which I suspect are from Covid days and not to keep you cool); We left one window open as the noise from outside would have been too much otherwise. Mattresses are basic, but comfortable - Bedding is provided, as are clothes hangers, an electric free standing fan (Too noisy to leave on whilst asleep) toilet roll and hand soap. We had the Continental Breakfast for £6 PP - Bargain and worth the price! :)
