    Cheap room and great location, but let down by lack of heating. Otherwise a good low-budget hotel

    Heating didn't work at all, so was an uncomfortable, freezing cold night. Single glazing in windows meant it was quite noisy all night with people leaving clubs/bars and also from busy traffic outside hotel. Would also advise fridge temperature is turned down a bit, since it froze my food.

    Great location and for a good price. Bed was very comfortable and bathroom well-stocked. Free wi-fi (didn't need to use), kettle, microwave, sinks and fridge all available in room. Private bathroom.

    Not great, but somewhere to sleep!

    It was very dated and the facilities were not good, e.g. The mattress on the bed was absolutely awful, you shouldn't really be charging someone to sleep on that! Fortunately I slept well as I was so tired from having happened to sleep badly the previous night! The value for money is poor given that in many cities you can get a Travelodge for the same price with private bathroom, large comfortable bed and breakfast included.

    Good communication (all online - no staff present), decent location (I didn't necessarily need a central place but it was what was available and would be handy if you wanted to be near the night life).

    not a lot considering the value for money except for one thing. they falsely advertised that they have parking available. hmmm not true, there is a NCP car park in Brighton, so they might as well advertise that they also have a cinema and swimming pool, those facilities also exist somewhere in Brighton. Spent too much time trying to find the mythical parking and ended up 3 miles away. you have been warned! picture attached

    location and a very comfortable proper mattress. easy to find and gain access. also very quiet.

    Be aware that your room can be on 2nd to 4th floor without elevator. The place is ok, but as many others in UK is not well kept, everything looks old and dirty

    Nothing to dislike really. It's just somewhere to sleep, nothing else. There are no staff on site so there's no human interaction. It's just a place to crash.

    Really close to everything. The location is spot on.

    I'd recommend using the bathroom on the floor below if you get given a top floor room. The WC up there is literally a closet at the top of some wonky stairs, so you practically have to put your feet in the shower to use the toilet and the only sink is in your room. It was also quite hot, even with a fan. So overall I feel it was a bit too pricey for what we got, but good as a crash pad if needed.

    Great central location, excellent public transport links, 5mins from the beach.

    The pressure in the shower could have been a bit better. It took a long time for it to warm up and then there wasn't a lot of water that came out, which was weird since the water pressure in the sink was just fine. Also there wasn't any place you could hang up your towels once you used them. The top rooms get very warm, we had to have the fan running 24/7 when we were in the room and have the window open. You also had to walk up a lot of stairs to get to the room.

    It was a very nice location, within walking distance of the pier and many other things. The room was clean although a bit small. The bathrooms were shared although that wasn't really a problem.

    I wasn’t aware when booking I’d be on the fourth floor (with no lift) - the stairs are narrow too and dragging my bags up/down wasn’t fun. The shower room on the top floor is so small it’s almost unusable. I’m 6’3 so possibly not an issue for most people. The cold water tap on the basin in the room had virtually no water pressure - it was impossible to even wash my hands without using only the scaldingly hot water. One of the (two) plug sockets was broken and there were what looked a lot like toenail clippings stuck in the carpet… I was just in the room whilst transiting though the city and didn’t raise any of the above with the staff (who aren’t on site) - maybe they would have fixed things if I’d asked. I also paid anEXTORTIONATE rate for this room. if it had been c.£40 a night none of the above would have been an issue but at 3x that I felt ripped off.

    The location is perfect (central enough without being right in the middle of the noise!) and it was easy to find. The self check-in worked perfectly.

    The bathroom facilities on the top floor were inadequate, too small and cramped, and the shower not cleaned often enough. The lead for the kettle was too short, so had to use the kettle on the floor. Being in a central location was very good, but it meant it was very noisy overnight (from traffic, and people).

    The location was excellent. Checking in was easy, with an automatic system. The room was clean and had appropriate facilities, the bed was comfy. They provided a fan, very useful in hot weather.
