Be aware: this is not a “hotel” in the traditional sense—it is a college dorm room. If you know that going in, you can set your expectations accordingly. The room was extremely small, with limited storage, no mini fridge, and no AC. There were also no outlets in the bathroom for a hair dryer, curling iron, etc. The bed was hard and, at best, comparable to a full-size and was pushed against the wall. For two adults, one person had to climb over the other or crawl down the foot of the bed to get out. The £15 breakfast is served in a student cafeteria a walk away. I found the food unusual: pancakes and waffles were served chilled, while eggs, meat, juice, and milk were room temperature. One morning, we missed breakfast entirely because a fire drill required everyone to evacuate. There are some useful amenities: parking is £15 for 12 hours, there is a basement laundry, a nearby campus store sells laundry pods, and there is a water purifier in the lobby. The biggest issue was noise. Since this is student accommodation, students were outside loudly partying until around 3 a.m. every night. After long days of sightseeing, getting enough sleep was difficult. Overall, this may work for budget travelers or those looking for basic accommodation, but if you're expecting a comfortable, quiet hotel experience, this probably isn't the place for you.
