    We had a great stay in this hotel. It had a good location close to all the best places in the city and was easy to get to-and-from the airport with transportation. The hotel facilities were great including a lobby, bar, and pool where we could engage in some fun activities. The staff was most helpful, giving us a small portion of food for dinner for free. the triple room on the 6th floor was a great size for the 3 of us, and the mattresses were really comfy.

    Nothing.

    This hotel provides excellent value for money. The prices are affordable, making it a great option for budget travelers. Additionally, the hotel is located in the city center, just above a lively pub. This means you'll have easy access to all the attractions and amenities that downtown has to offer. The staff are also very friendly and provide good service.

    Everything was satisfactory, no improvements needed.

    Great location in the city center, surrounded by bars and restaurants. Spacious common room on the first floor with various amenities. Comfortable mattress for a good night's sleep. Decent food and drinks at the bar with affordable prices. Good wifi connectivity throughout the property.

    Free Snacks, options to have cheap meals, a cheap bar which didnt seem to make noise on Fri and Sat, surprisingly!

    the fact that the self catering kitchen in our apartment was not cleaned properly at all during our 4 day stay...the one tea towel and cloth (between 5 double/twin rooms) stunk and i got a throat infection from eating in there, we asked for clean ones on the second to last day and they only gave us a tea towel, no new washing up cloth! Also, there facilities were bad (tin opener, dirty, old shower, etc)
