What a shame, the hotel is in a great location but the condition is looking tired and not appealing at all. Rooms were falling apart. No utensils or anything in the room, including a remote to work the TV. Requested a remote and it was provided, but without any batteries in the remote so gave up and never got to watch TV. Limited bathroom supplies which is annoying since I travel light for work. All of the facilities mentioned on the website were not available so pointless suggested to prospective guests to take any form of swim wear. I would never stay at this hotel again.

Studio had kitchenette but no toaster,utensils, plates, dishes, glasses or pots and pans. No clothes hanger and hairdryer was missing, irioning board but no iron. Asked at reception and they sent someone up with hairdryer and cutlery and hangers but took a long time. Mattress protector was stained and filthy. Bathroom really small, toiletries the smallest shower gel, etc ive ever seen. Room very hot, opened window but then was very noisy. Went back yesterday 5th aug 2025 to check out 1 day early due to feeling unwell, luckily i was leaving bag packed as hotel was being evacuated due to fire. Had to haul luggage down 9 floors..alarms were not very obvious just saw lifts out of service, firemen scaling stairs shouting at us to get out. No one to take register, no one alerts you to fire drill etc on check in. No wonder no refunds, very disappointed.

Awful Service

Absolutely terrible experience — zero stars if I could. We were told to call ahead to arrange parking, but for two full weeks, every attempt led nowhere. Reception would “helpfully” offer to transfer us to their supposed parking team, but every single time the call just rang out and went straight to voicemail — no one ever picked up. It honestly felt like the parking team doesn’t even exist. After two frustrating weeks of being bounced between reception and voicemail, we finally resorted to emailing. At that point, they booked the parking, but never sent us any confirmation. When we arrived, the instructions were vague and unclear. Parking is under the building, but Google Maps sends you down to the docks instead. I asked reception if we could park temporarily to collect the permit — they said yes. Two weeks later, we get slapped with a £100 parking fine, which was more than the cost of the stay itself. To top it off, the room was dusty, with no air conditioning, making it extremely uncomfortable in summer. If you expect even the most basic level of service or communication, do not stay here.

This is the worse booking i have ever made on expedia. I checked in and had to give a 100 holding deposit. We went to the room and opened the door and the heat hit you. I looked for the air con but turns out there is none. The window would not stay open on its own i had to use my trainer to hold it open.I then went to put my food in the fridge and of course the fridge was soooo hot inside that was not working. The reviews said it was on the small side but the size was ridiculously small. The bed was so noisy just sitting on made all the wooden panels creek. The staff gave zero apologises for any of the issues we were having. I checked in at 5pm and by 5.30pm i had checked back out, in just 30 minutes my face was as red as a tomato from the heat and i felt like i was going to pass out. I have never left a review even if i have had a bad stay but i feel like I need to write this so i can warn you to stay away from this property.

Our experience at this hotel was incredibly disappointing and, frankly, unacceptable. We are two young women who work night shifts, and we specifically chose this property only because we were assured that parking and late check-out were available — both were essential for us to rest properly after long overnight hours. However, upon arrival, we were told there was no parking available whatsoever, despite clear confirmation beforehand. This forced us to find parking far away and walk back to the hotel late at night, in the dark, through unfamiliar streets. As two women, this was not only frustrating but also genuinely dangerous — and the hotel showed absolutely no concern. To make matters worse, our confirmed late check-out was also denied the next morning. After working night shifts and planning our stay around getting the proper rest, we were told to leave at the standard time with no flexibility, no apology, and no accountability. This hotel blatantly misled us, failed to deliver on basic promises, and put our safety at risk. The lack of professionalism and disregard for guest wellbeing is astonishing. If you value clear communication, safety, or even basic hospitality, I urge you to book elsewhere.
