Very handy if you have an event at Gaslight. Room was very clean, staff were awesome and helpful.

Car parking can be an issue. Noise from nightclub next door could be heard all night, but was expected and ear plugs solved it.

Grata estancia en el centro de la ciudad
Pros:

Me encantó la habitación, muy cómoda y espaciosa, y sobre todo el personal que nos atendió, muy amables y atentos, quiero dejar una valoración especial a Aakash muy su excelente atención.

Cons:

El único inconveniente es que no contaban con elevador, pero nos ayudaron con el equipaje y la verdad no fue un problema.

Pros:

Fantastic location, room was comfortable with lovely decor and character. Surprisingly quiet given the location. Lovely communal lounge area with comfy couch and big tv

Cons:

Shared bathrooms had a strong smell of urine (both the male and female bathrooms). They were cleaned daily but the smell remained. Rooms are only accessible via two flights of stairs which was difficult with luggage or mobility issues.

Pros:

Location was perfect! Renovated large rooms, comfortable beds. Clean. Helpful staff.

Cons:

Shared bathrooms - though always fully stocked, could have done with a deep clean. Coffee supplied expired 7 months earlier.

Nice and central location but very noisy at night
Pros:

The location was great and close to bus and trains, comfortable beds

Cons:

Very old school window which meant it did not seal properly. Can hear every sound from the outside which made it very difficult to sleep at night

Great for a short term stay.
Pros:

Reasonably well placed, just 15 minutes walk from the airport metro line, it’s in a nice area which has strong LGBT connections. Room was very small so only comfortable for short stays. Shared bathroom was no big issue although it is effectively a wet room. Kitchen area was okay and provided enough to allow some level of self board.

Cons:

Noise levels in late evening can be high but not too concerning. A smoke alarm was beeping one afternoon but after flagging it to the staff they sorted it.
