Another great stay at City Court
Pros:

They gave me an extra heater because I had trouble working the main one. Once the room was warm it stayed warm.

Cons:

No cloth/ sponge to wipe the kitchen bench. They gave me another tea towel but it feels weird wiping the bench with a tea towel. Also the water pressure in the shower wasn't great. Just a couple of minor niggles.

Clean but a bit rough
Pros:

The room was clean and tidy and equipped for cooking.

Cons:

The bed was very uncomfortable. Hard, woke up with a sore body as a result. Not enough blankets, the pillows felt cheap/poor quality. The couch was also quite rough. Cupboards were worn, chipped, doors not hanging on straight.. Not that it really matters, but overall it was a bit shabby.

Appalling
Pros:

Overall nice spacious living room, bathroom and bedroom

Cons:

Toilet seat was way to short and didn’t fit on the toilet bowl which was appalling for me as a man it was somewhat okay but for my partner it was horrible she almost fell off it also the tv looked as if it had been smashed it had lines all over it and a big chunk of the screen had dead pixels all black it’s shocking how bad it was considering I stayed in the studio for cheaper and it was miles better quality

A nice, fairly priced studio hotel room.
Pros:

The main room was very spacious and clean on arrival. The room was also well furnished with a couch, coffee table, a dining table, a TV and there were several packets of tea and coffee in the kitchen area.

Cons:

While not as bad as some reviewers have made it out to be, there were several mould growths on the ceiling of the bathroom. It was a bit off putting.

Cons:

External light couldn't be turned off resulting in the room being quite light at night.
