Pros:

The location is great, and staff is friendly and responsive, the place is clean.

Cons:

The furniture is damaged as well as the carpets on the floor which gives the place an outdated and maybe unclean look which is not!

Spacious room comfortable enough, location excellent and had a great time .
Pros:

Location is excellent. Rooms are dated but perfectly practical and very clean.

Cons:

Only one pillow per person so will definitely bring extra next time and there’s no lift so getting luggage up all the stairs was an experience 🙈

Pros:

Economical spartan stay. Good value for money. Great location right in the heart of the city centre.

Cons:

Should let the occupants know upfront that there is no wifi and that one would have to climb 4 floors to get to the room. Absence of a lift should be made very clear. The paint on the walls is flaking. Could do with a functional wardrobe for hanging clothes.
