I would definitely stay there again
Pros:

It was quiet and very clean. Great location for me...tram just a 15 min walk away. My room was straightened and cleaned at least once during my short stay...

Cons:

The window lock didn't work and I found it open one day...not too secure as the screws were coming out....but it was ok....I forgot to tell the staff that how much it bothered me...so no big deal

Bowman Hucknall
Pros:

Location, very near to a bus stop. Convenient to travel. Cleanliness toilet was very clean, bed linen was clean. Most amenities like iron, stand electric kettle, coffee, tea, sugar and milk, tv were available. Breakfast was decent.

Cons:

Bath gel/shampoo was mediocre and was not replenished properly. Electrical sockets were not available near the beds making it inconvenient to charge phones. Lighting in the room could be slightly brighter.
