it’s okay for a night but for what i got its should be cheaper.
Pros:

it’s was perfect for a one night stay, the shower had good pressure and was spacious. there was a tv and aircon/heating.

Cons:

the bin in my room wasn’t changed. the window didn’t lock and there was a roof right in from of it so felt a little unsafe. the mini fridge wasn’t plugged in and it had a horrible smell.

Would not stay again
Cons:

Looked absolutely nothing like the photos. Tv remote was broken in 1/2, stains literally everywhere on walls and floor, both chairs in room were taped together, they started vacuuming the hall at 630AM. Only reason I didn’t leave is because I got there late

Abysmall, only good for the location.
Pros:

Convenient Location.

DISGUSTING
Pros:

Nothing at all. Not a single nice thing could be said about anything in that place sadly

Cons:

Everything. Nothing was clean. Staff didn't even know I booked a nights stay. Toilets had poo everywhere on the seats. Stairs to accommodation kept squeaking and was dirty. Rooms looked like a prison cell. Everything was rusty and dusty. Broken furniture and dirty lounge area. Laundry looked like a dumpster. Room walls had holes in it and shower vent cover was missing. Everything was just disgusting in that place. Guy was vaping in accommodation lounge so that's all you could smell through the hallways. Would rate 0 or even minus if I could
