Nice, convenient, cheap
Pros:

Very clean and tidy, small but nice looking, very big comfortable bed. Bathroom was good, shower was powerful and the shower gel/shampoo etc provided smelt lovely. The self check in was very handy too, as we came quite late.

Cons:

Very bright light on the fire alarm and the air con made frequent noises all night. Not terrible but it did wake us up a good few times. Also the bathroom door is like a sliding door and you can see through a big gap from the bedroom, didn’t bother me but it could to some people. The location is suspicious (attached photo), wouldn’t like to walk by myself there at night, be wary. Not just the exact street of the hotel but the surroundings too.

Very hot, but good style
Pros:

The style, the coffee, the kitchen was great
A great array of teas
The honesty bar is a great idea
The access was easy
The bathroom worked well, the body wash smelled lovely

Cons:

It was roasting in our room to the point we had no duvet and still sweating, despite turning the heater off
There's no windows, and we felt a bit uncomfortable propping the bedroom door open to the communal areas
We ended up putting the air conditioner on to cool the room down (in early January in a weather warning!) which felt a bit mad

The mattress wasn't great but the bedding was soft and everything was super clean

Pros:

the common area was great, communication super, friendly staff, unreal location, lovely placw to stay

Cons:

the radiator in the main bedroom was broken which meant it was colder than i would have liked. luckily there was another radiator in the small bedroom but it didnt heat the whole place at all
