Awesome service and room, would happily stay here again. It's proximity to student accommodation might lead to some noisy streets, but nothing that kept me awake.

Lovely folk. Appreciated the welcoming text prior to arrival. Room was all one could need and very clean! Not a frequent user, so it could have helped to have had the fridge switched on - or told it was off. No I didn't notice for a day and a bit. Liked that they gave an eco responsible option for towels/waste bags etc

i think that the TV channels offered are too limited. Why not have more Sky channels, e.g. CNN, BBC, more Sky sport and movies, etc. With much else to do on these cold evenings, they should make watching TV pleasurable. .
