Southampton is a hell hole.
Pros:

The rooms are like dorm rooms. They were clean and the doors lock, that is the only good attribute. Southampton is a hell hole. We took a cruise out of this place, and we will never never do that again.

Cons:

It is is in Southhampton. Southampton is a hell hole.
