Pros:

Ideal location to visit Son at Uni, easy parking, location for bus stop into Norwich, staff really lovely and helpfull.
Facilities in room was good, tea coffee and biscuits with kettle, and small fridge in the room.

Slight issue with drain smell in the bathroom, possible sink water trap, running this for a while helped though, unfortunately we were woken to the fire alarm going off at 2am, due to students who live below the hotel, security officer came and checked, no other personnel at the time, not sure how it is recorded who is in the building and who is not?

Thankfully this was not a fire, but aerosol deodrant issue.

Overall great that they offer hotel accommodation on campus and at a reasonable price, served the purpose for what we needed the room for. We would use again as a good option.

Pros:

This hotel is on the UEA campus and very handy for the LCR and Drama Studio.
À few issues with the room. Leaky shower head, no towels at first (but the receptionist sorted that out quickly and with good humour) and the shower could do with a better door. Overall fine as a place to stay for visiting UEA or nearby. Breakfast was very good nearby at the Sports Hall.

Fantastic hotel for gigs.
Pros:

Perfect hotel for the uea music venue as it’s right next door. Beautiful surroundings too, lots of trees and a lake. Our only issue was the toilet was continuously filling up, you had to really pull the flush handle up after flushing, which we didn’t figure out until the morning. Everything else was perfect.

Overall good….
Pros:

It’s very basic accommodation, but very comfortable. Unfortunately it was very warm when there, and even though a fan was provided (thankfully) it was very uncomfortable the first night there. Arriving after 9pm due to delays in travel meant we had to locate security to acquire key, which wasn’t so easy…. Bathroom tiles seemed to be loose, hoping not so, as it’s basically a wet room so room below May have water damage. Cold water fountain in stairwell was amazing, seeing as temperatures were so high…… overall a very good stay!

The room was clean and generally comfortable, but unfortunately, the towels provided had a strong, unpleasant odor. This affected the overall sense of cleanliness and comfort during my stay.

Really friendly and helpful welcome, marking eating facilities on a campus map for me. Room wasn't large, but was very clean with a comfortable bed. Nothing to criticise for the price.

I'd definitely book again
Pros:

So my overall stay was good but started a bit negatively with the car park. Customers can park for free in the main car park once you register at check in, but it's actual signage was sports park car park so I wasn't sure if I was in the correct place until I checked with security.
On arrival at the hotel I was greeted by Tina who was great, ordering a cab for me and pointing out where the taxi would pick me up, very helpful, thank you.
I wasn't sure if I had chosen the right place to stay, bearing in mind it was on a university campus and I'm in my fifties, but all was quiet once I returned to my room, so pleasantly surprised. Would definitely stay here again if I needed to stay near Norwich.
