We stayed in a one bedroom apartment which was self contained and comfortable. The staff were very helpful and hospitable and when our room wasn’t quite ready for check-in, they offered us a late checkout. The bathroom was very spacious and whilst there wasn’t a great view from the small balcony, it was lovely to see lots of trees within the city. The bed wasn’t super comfy, but we brought this to their attention upon checkout. We paid for onsite parking as we wanted to see everything by foot. The only negative thing about the car park was the small, tight spaces. Good for small cars, not so much for a Ford Ranger.

Nice hotel close to Southbank

Front desk service from Dominic ( I think ) was excellent nice young man who treated us politely and was very informative. Room was one bedroom roomy comfortable Kitchen with all that was needed, washing machine dryer and carpark available although found this expensive considering the price for the accommodation for the three nights we stayed. Location was good but I’m more an other side of City Rd person.
