Cheap did the job for a one night stay.
Pros:

Room was quite clean, the hotel is central and the staff were friendly. Bed comfortable. Cheap.

Cons:

Dark brown carpet covered a multitude of spillages. One lift broken others slow. Didn’t like the Perspex screens at reception above desks. Toiletries limited. Very dated in general needs a complete refurbishment.

Ok if you just need a bed for the night and don't care where
Pros:

City centre location is great
It was the cheapest hotel, so if you are travelling alone and just need somewhere to crash for the night and don't mind anything along as you have a bed it's ok

Cons:

Staff at front desk have no customers service.
The hotel is very dated and has not been maintained in a long time.
The mattress was very worn flat and had springs coming throu.

My First Britannia Experience
Pros:

"First impression", they say, matters a lot. I must acknowledge the speedy response and considerable response, allowing me to check-in after the window was closed.

Secondly for me again, was the location, cleanliness and stress-free check-in process....it was indeed as described in the email prior to my arrival.

Finally, was the level of quietness...I completely enjoyed it as my wife and I needed the sort of space to relax. In the two nights I found myself waking up after 9am...this had never happened before.

Overall, I had a good time and would certainly recommend this apartment to friends and family.

Cons:

NA
