Like: Good location, room was clean and spacious, bed was confortable. Didn't like: it gets too hot, windows are extremely poorly designed; you cannot open it, therefore there is not air flow at all, seriously those windows are ridiculously poor designed.

Great location
Great location, friendly staff, perfectly adequate en-suite student room with a nearby kitchen to use too. Only problem we encountered was that it was very warm and was impossible to open the window more than a couple of inches at the top… a ‘health and safety’ matter apparently. Other than that, all good and would use again.

10/10 Exceptional

Great value option
Great accomodation option, clean quite but with the advantage of option to cook for self in the shared kitchen if needed. I would say dont let the fact this is student accomodation put you off. It was quite and easy to keep youself to self. Bed was fine for us as a couple as im short and so i could sleep where the end of the bed had the end of a desk against it and he is 6 foot 1 so his feet could dangle over end. Was a great base to expre the city from.
