Super clean rooms

Comfortable bed

Close city centre

"Being only a 10 minute walk from the shambles you really are in the heart of the city, knowing this expect some road noise at night as well as a few sirens as the hospital is just down the road; if you're a light sleeper this might not be for you but for me and my partner it was fine!"

some issues

scruffy entrance small shower cubicle

the outside entrance looked quite scruffy. the communal hallway seemed like it needed a good cleaning and definitely a modern update. our room was okay. but the shower cubicle felt very small and looked to need an update too.
