HORRIBLE.
Pros:

NOTHING. N/A.

Cons:

If I could give 0 stars, I would! Avoid this property at all costs. What seemed like an affordable budget stay turned out to be an extortionate, miserable experience. The management hits you with hidden charges after the fact, including a surprise £4.97 mandatory fee (which no other place does? only this scam of a place) and a ridiculous £25 "late check-in fee" for an AI self-check-in. They refuse to refund either.

The room itself looks nothing like the listing photos and was filthy, battered and damaged. The kettle reeked of sewage to the point I was scared to even touch or use it, the bathroom lights didn't work, and the shower barely functioned. On top of that, the walls seemed painted black just to hide stains, the TV remote was under the bed, and the advertised "private desk" is a cramped joke under an empty closet rail that I could not cannot physically sit at. Wifi access was completely unavailable as they gave me the wrong password so I was forced to use my data even though they advertised free wifi. Appalling standards and completely dishonest business practices. I saw a review below calling this place a crack den and I completely agree, it is exactly like a crack den. DO NOT COME HERE!

Awful stay, nothing like the listing
Pros:

Awful stay, nothing like the listing

Avoid this place. The room bore no resemblance to what was advertised on Booking.com, and it was a genuinely awful experience from the moment I walked in.

The carpet was filthy and stained, and the room stank. A window was cracked, which is a real safety hazard. The bathroom and hallway lights didn't work, so I had to use the toilet and bath in the dark. That is unacceptable and potentially dangerous. The bathroom fan was ridiculously loud and kept me awake. The bedding and duvet cover were shabby and not fit for purpose.

Overall, the room was far below the standard advertised and well below what anyone should expect to pay for. If I had seen its real condition, I would never have booked it. I've lodged a formal complaint with Booking.com and requested a full refund. Check the photos carefully, and don't assume the listing reflects reality.

Pros:

It’s the most tiniest places I have ever come across. The place is rundown and sticks as you get in

Cons:

It’s the most tiniest places I have ever come across. The place is rundown and stinks as you get in. The bathroom is ridiculously small, with no light and broken tiles. It’s not any bigger than a shed. The shelves were broken with the room. Checkin process is over complicated. I had to wait an hour for the key collection instructions.
