Cleanliness
6
Multiple reviews mention dusty rooms, need for deep cleaning/regrout and rusty/damaged bathroom fittings; one report of air-con leak soaking luggage. Cleanliness is below average.
Service
9.4
Many comments praise friendly, helpful staff by name (Grace, Tom), staff resolving issues and making guests feel welcome; one instance of reception being indifferent about a leak but overall service is a strong positive.
Location
9.2
Repeatedly described as central, excellent spot, close to the city centre, canal and station — location is a clear strength.
Room Quality
6.6
Beds are frequently described as comfortable but rooms are often small, dated, noisy (thin walls, banging doors), with some maintenance issues (broken toilet, doors not locking) — mixed to below-average room quality.
Amenities
7.6
Breakfast and bar/drinks are noted positively and parking discount mentioned; negatives include limited bar opening times and the problematic air-con unit — amenities are generally adequate with some issues.
Value for Money
8.6
Multiple guests describe the hotel as great value, affordable and good value for money, though a few found small rooms overpriced.
Food and Beverage
7.4
Breakfast receives positive mentions and drinks at the bar were praised, but coverage is limited and there are complaints about bar opening times.
Overall Experience
8.4
Overall reviews skew positive thanks to location, friendly staff and value for money, balanced by cleanliness, room condition and occasional maintenance problems; a generally good stay with notable areas for improvement.

Great sleep in Leeds
Pros:

The room was exceptionally clean and tidy when we first checked in. Bath was hot, and we slept well as the hotel was just away from the noise of the city centre.

Cons:

Softer pillow options.

While facilities and service were acceptable, the pricing is unreasonable for the experience provided. I wouldn't re
Pros:

The staff, cleanliness, and location were decent, but the stay is completely overpriced for what is offered. The value for money is very poor.

Cons:

An average stay overall, but definitely not worth the price. Expected much better quality for this rate.

Reasonable value for money, however, I did acquire a similar deal with Radisson Blue.
Pros:

Room and bed was comfortable and the price paid is value for money. The location is ideal to reach the centre of town.

Cons:

We had to experience noisy deliveries to a nearby establishment early in the morning

Good location and price, but not very much of value of money
Pros:

The location is good, with a Sainsbury's and a bar nearby. The restaurant area is quite large, and it has room for working. But there could be some improvement regarding the check-in space; it feels like it does not need that much room for a checkin/out. Pillows are comfortable.

Cons:

Well, first of all, the air conditioning is too loud, but it is very strong so okay then. The room barely has any space for a suitcase to lay out for sorting stuff. The towels just two towels, and I would expect more. Secondly, I would have assumed the bar area should be mixed with the rest, for gathering and working, but there is no area which is specifically designed for working. The desk in the room is tiny, with no chargers and, I assume, no free coffee. Thirdly, the room and this place have a feeling of having just finished its refurbishment, with a bit of a chemical smell.

Spacious. Nice area near river.
Pros:

The room, and particularly the public rooms were spacious comfortable and stylish. The staff all lovely.

Cons:

The pillows were dreadful. Too firm too thick really bad for the neck. Had it not been for the pillows the beds would have been fine. The accommodation corridors were long and featureless and the key card repeatedly failed.
