Very uncomfortable mattress and rickety bed frame. Poor levels of sound insulation between rooms. Forget about hand lotion and shower caps, concentrate on getting the basics right.

Good location about 20 minutes walk from the station and 12 minutes from the Corn Exchange and City Centre in the other direction. Lovely welcome, quick & easy check in. I booked a small single room but there was plenty of room for my one night stay after a concert at the Corn Exchange. I would definitely stay here again and in fact, have already booked another stay.

Really well positioned. Quite small rooms and fiddly corridors, but this is reflected in the price (versus location). Staff were very friendly. Didn't try the breakfasts.

Arrived before the stated check-in time but the room was ready so got checked in easily. No additional charge unlike some of the chain hotels. Room was as described and perfectly equipped for my needs. 3 times the amount of tea and coffee compared with the chain hotels. Again excellent value. Didn't require breakfast but was available.
