Pros:

If you are simply looking for somewhere cheap to crash after being out at night then this place is perfect, but do not expect a cosy or cute place. Bathroom was clean and shower is nice.

Cons:

The window is thin so you hear everything from the street, bring ear plugs. Also the room was cold in January so we set the heater to be on while we were out so that it was warm when we came back.

Pros:

The location is great, the room was super clean and nice, the instructions to get there and do the self check in were clear and everying was great.

Cons:

The noise in the middle of the night it is to much, we read in the reviews that this was the main problem and it is, so the recomedation is if you want a beautiful night of sleep without noise... don't stay there. If you want yo go out and party and were just looking for a place to sleep close yo the city center this is your best option. Overall it was a good saty.

Met expectation but I did have a big negative!
Pros:

Although the room was small you have everything you need. It was clean, warm and the shower was good.

Cons:

I had an overbooking issue which I did find slightly distressing. I had gone out for a couple of hours after checking in and when I came back I found the room now also contained someone else's belongings. I had taken the key I was provided out with me, had left valuables in the room too, so this issue I did find concerning. I had a telephone number I was provided with in the correspondence which I rang, and he did manage to resolve my issue for me. Also he did change the lock to give me peace of mind. I asked for a discount but was not given one.
