Very Short Stay
Pros:

Clean, had everything in it that you would expect, location walkable into central Leicester from where I was. Had a fridge although I had nothing to put in it.

Cons:

Small and pokey room, limited channels on TV, musky smell in room, noisy from some kind of machine (extraxtor fans elsewhere). Might have been that fridge. It was deluxe room, so not sure what the lower standrd was like. Still, you gwt what you pay for. At least is was clean and I only had to do a night. I left early morning, could have stayed until 11am.

Small clean hostel with privacy
Pros:

Overall the property is clean and at good location

Cons:

There is no parking ,I had to park at abbey car park and dragged my bags 5-7 minutes walk to the hotel
Staff was calm in exploring this to me though but I adviced they indicate NCP parking instead of just “P” so people are aware of hidden charges
