Lovely staff. Big up Esther on the front desk. Breakfast was good, had a lot of options and the showers were nice and hot. Places to lounge and decent use of WiFi. Not sure why it’s got one star

Very friendly and helpful staff, clean public facilities and pretty small but neat private bedroom. Besides that very central location directly in the city centre. Taking the price into account it was really awesome :)
