Comfy and clean

Friendly staff, had no problem over the 3 nights I stayed over. Funny enough it was the same place my friend stayed a few months back. Room clean, easy access. I booked a double room with private bathroom. Would recommend. Shops nearby if needed, bus stop within walking distance.

Where do I begin… As soon as we entered, the front of house staff were welcoming, kind and made us feel right at home. Every morning we were greeted with kind faces and smiles, adding to the safe (stay) experience. Although we were neighbouring some unexpected machinery, we grew to love our atmosphere, it’s hard to complain when you get such luxury for only £20 a pop. Highly recommend, and oh boy did I love that coffee machine. All our love, Molly, Ti & Rosa. <3
