Basic place to stay and the price was outrageous for being so basic. They tried to update the rooms but unfortunately it was a big failure. Musty smell, window wouldn’t open the shower door didn’t close and flooded the floor. The hot water booster was either scalding or freezing. This place is best for a hostel vs 150£.

I was sent to the wrong room a disturbed another guest then was out into a room with a shared bathroom which was filthy the bed sheets had a hat looked like blood stains or something worse so I was forced to leave and sleep in my car. I would rather sleep in a shop door than stay in this place. Without doubt the worst place I have never stayed. How it passes health and safety standards is beyond me. If it was a cheap place to stay you could maybe understand but £120 a night wow

Everything was good with a few quirks - like the shower doors were sitting off the rails (easy fix), and some thin walls and enthusiastic neighbours (not the property’s fault).
