The lady at check in was really lovely and helpful.
Pros:

It was comfortable and convenient

Cons:

Shower cleanliness was a little off. There were some cut toenails on the floor, toilet roll holder was loose so it kept falling onto floor.

Okay but not as advertised.
Pros:

Good location close to trains

Cons:

The rooms was advertised as 25 meters square. It wasn’t even close to that. Also the wifi was useless. No desk or table.

Served the purpose and close to rail transport for our day outing.
Pros:

Bed and facilities good value and well laid out. Dining downstairs a convenient and pleasant experience.

Cons:

Traffic noise, particularly bikes over revving as well ss cars made it hard to sleep till about 1.30am then about 5am the noise of trucks at the traffic lights changing gear as they took off was hard to ignore. Ear plugs a must next time!

Just ok
Pros:

The room was small for the price I paid. The bin in the bathroom was full from the last guests, when you sat on the toilet and looked at the wall it had boogers and poo finger prints and the shower had no pressure and was extremely mouldy, the shower floor was super slippery from being dirty. Not impressed and would not recommend.

Cons:

The bed was comfy.

Mixed reviews
Pros:

I liked the QR opportunity in the rooms and friendly staff. Good price if you need to stay outside the city centre.

Cons:

We ordered a meal to the room and it never arrived. The corridor smelled really bad like someone tried to mask the odor with liters of air freshener. Also the room had a sock smell, maybe it was the carpet. Anyways everything was a bit outdated and smaller than in the pictures. Fair price tbh.
