Pros:

Lovely, spacoius room (Room 4), that felt bright and airy. Very comfortable bed with good quality white cotton bedding. Just perfect for an overnight stay (to see a play at the Marlowe Theatre, literally around the corner)!

Would certainly come again. Great location.

Fijn verblijf voor 1 nacht
Pros:

Geweldige douche. Stond eigenlijk niet in verhouding met de kamer. Locatie was midden in de stad. Perfect. Het was ook schoon en rook niet raar of zo. Airco stond op 16⁰ dus deze snel uitgezet.

Cons:

Er was naast het bed nauwelijks ruimte om je voeten neer te zetten. Je kwam dus moeilijk op het bed. Was ook geen ruimte om je spullen neer te zetten. Was behelpen.

Good stay
Pros:

Very nice room within the centre of town. Liked it a lot. Was a very nice but short stay.

Cons:

Parking. There is no parking in the neighbourhood, very much to pay and otherwise 10 min walking. Its not bad, but it would be nice if it where closer.

Pros:

Mitten in der Stadt

Cons:

Sehr laut durch die Pubs , die bis nach Mitternacht laute Musik anhatten und durch die Pubbesucher. Die beigefügten Ohropax halfen da auch nicht.

Pros:

The accommodation was really good in every way, especially the bathroom, but the room was just too small for two pensioners for four nights. When we brought our luggage in we had no room to move and there wasn't much room to get into bed. However it was ideal for a one night stay and the location was fantastic. The staff were very helpful.

Cons:

It was just that the room was very small and hardly any room on each side of the bed to get into bed. I think it was just our age and arthritis that made it difficult.

Don't stay Friday or Saturday night's as the bar noise is unbearable
Pros:

This was a pleasant room for several nights. But has some short coming not mentioned in the online information but a good location.

Cons:

Firstly this room has a treacherous staircase that you need to lug your bags up. Part of it without a hand rail.

There are four rooms located above a noisy bar. It is managed remotely by the owner. This itself led to problems. Such as our rooms not being serviced.

On Friday and Saturday nights the bar plays thumping music until 12.30am. It's very noisy and you can't sleep.

Some of the rooms are very very small.

Finally the shower in our room was extremely slippery when wet. It really needed some sort of antislip protection. It was very dangerous.

Convenient, contemporary, clean and comfortable.
Pros:

Very modern, and good ‘extras’ like Temple Spa toiletries etc.

Cons:

I would have given the property 10 but the bar next door played loud dance music until 1am. It is a shame, because there was no one actually in the place as my partner went to check as he couldn’t sleep.
The place was perfect apart from that though.
