We arrived early, instead of just dropping our luggage they let us book early. Thanks very much for that. The room is clean , bed comfortable, water of plenty and that’s all I needed prior embarking on a cruise. The price is very affordable.

Room was functional and clean. Iif you are sticking to a budget and you just need somewhere to sleep, with just the basics, then this is ok. Check in was straightforward. Our room was ready for a refurb and the view from our window wasn’t great. The area seemed ok, but a bit run down. Approx 10 mins walk to city centre, which is handy
