    They put us in the wrong room, I booked a shared room and they put us in a Double Room. they told us that breakfast would be served between 8-10 am the next morning. no breakfast was available and we had to find our own. they did give us money to pay for the breakfast.

    Quiet room after they changed our room.

    Great location right in the city. Big rooms Clean Very cheap price - less than hostel Security conscious

    I was extremely disappointed to find out that both days of our stay there was no restaurant or bar Had hoped to have new years eve in the bar and breakfast the next morning On check-in the reception had to find out if bar was open and we were then told it was closed over new year and the 1st of January Wish we had known this when we booked But as I say everything else good

    As always the room was excellent and the staff helpful we even got an early check in and were supplied with extra pillows

    The receptionist wasn’t welcoming to me at all. Rather hostile in fact. Dirty lift walls & worn dirty looking carpet in the lift.

    Some of the reception staff not friendly. The hostile way they insist on ID even though I had booked online that afternoon and then walked into the reception. I had no ID as I didn’t know I was staying overnight when I travelled. I could have shown my e-mail confirmation on my phone but they didn’t seem interested- just insisted on me having photo ID. I was offered a refund but I told them I needed a room for the night. I was obviously upset and they were not sympathetic at all. Hairdryer seemed to be covered in grease. Shower gel/shampoo dispenser fell off and all the contents emptied into the bath.

    Good central location. Good price.

    realise you get what you pay for but the bed was quite hard and there was only one type of pillow which was really puffy. I wondered if this hotel is used to house homeless people because there was lots of people smoking out the front. I wondered if that was why they needed the security

    I like the foyer and that there aas secruity.

    I did not appreciate the fact the receptionist tried so had to change my room to the point of trying to cancel my booking just cause I did not accept a single room to the point where he thought it was OK for him to shout at me, and his colleague wasn't helpful at all as I asked him to give me the name of the receptionist that served me so I could put a complaint and he refused (the receptionist on the night was an indian male looking).

    I liked the room with its balcony

    Deco needs updating. Room booked was not what was given. They had no availability. I had to manage with single bed room. Staff need to pay attention when customer is standing in front of them, and not continue looking at computer screens and acknowledge you when they are ready. Staff need to be more friendly! Smile! I know its budget stay, but does that also mean budget service!

    Location to shops and centre.

    It was cold, the water was cold, couldn’t have a bath in the morning, the restaurant and bar was cold which then made our breakfast cold quick Check in requires ID which is not something expected and then bar did not open till 530pm, even thought there seemed to be plenty of staff!

    Old fittings look very luxurious like the old style Good value, good breakfast

    one of the bathroom taps was broken and an attempt to fix it wasn't really working. Only two pillows on a double bed and the duvet didn't fit the bed. It looked like a single duvet on a double bed. If there had been 2 of us in the bed the duvet definitely wouldn't have covered us both.

    Room was spacious and clean.its fitted out well and was a comfortable space to be in Location is amazing right in the city centre. 2 mins from cathedral, opposite the bus station, close to eateries and shops. The bed was OK.
