The hotel rooms are basic and not very comfortable, unfortunately lacking ventilation and the possibility to open windows. The fully packed pay mini-bar is not practical for two people. The service was a bit mixed, requiring trips to the main bar a few times but being extremely nice and understanding when resolving issues. The location is good, close to nightlife without being noisy, but a bit cramped into a corner. The dining options are limited and might not be worth the price. Overall, the hotel has some drawbacks but also offers positive aspects.

The hotel rooms were packed with alcohol drinks and snacks, which could easily tempt anyone. The front room was small, noisy, and lacked sound barriers, facing a courtyard or bar area that was exceptionally loud. Despite these drawbacks, the location was peaceful and just a stroll away from Eyres Square, offering a nice balance of closeness to nightlife without the disturbance. The dining experience was excellent overall, although there were some aspects that were slow and not the best value. The service was lovely throughout the hotel, with a mix of attentiveness from staff, including a helpful receptionist awaiting a refund for an unopened minibar item.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The room was a bit disappointing as it was tiny with two single beds pushed together, and the noise from traffic and early morning bin collections made it hard to sleep. The location was convenient, close to the city center, and the dining options were limited but decent. Overall, a bit pricey for a one-night stay.
