Worth weighing
5 to weigh- Rooms can feel compact — Some guests describe the rooms as good-sized but compact, which may not suit those wanting sprawling accommodation.
- Housekeeping inconsistencies — One review noted a soiled shower curtain and less-than-thorough vacuuming, though it was replaced on request.
- Dark decor — A guest found the rooms very dark in style, which may not appeal to everyone.
- Nearby adult venues — A sex shop and lap dancing club are located just up the road, which some guests may find off-putting.
- Price for class — At £144 per night, some guests may question the value given the compact rooms and nearby nightlife, though most found it reasonable.
