The hotel is great for an overnight stay, especially if you're on a business trip by yourself. The rooms are very big, especially the apartment ones, making them a cheap and good value for money choice. The smart TV is a bonus, and it's convenient to come and go from the property without any hassle. However, the rooms lack some amenities that are common in cheaper hotels, so it may not be ideal for taller people or groups. The style of the rooms leans more towards aesthetics rather than practicality.

The service was excellent, and the staff dealt with noisy rooms promptly. The overall atmosphere is laid-back, and the ambient lighting adds a nice touch to the corridors. Housekeeping also sorted out any issues straight away.
Location

The location is lovely, providing a peaceful escape from the hustle and bustle of a major city. It's slightly out of the city center, about a 15-minute walk, making it an ideal spot for a one-night stopover in a nice area. The proximity to the Jewellery Quarter and the prepaid car park at the back adds to the convenience.
Dining
7.0
Dining options are limited, with breakfast catering more to weekday workers. However, there are various salads available, and 'The 8 Foot Grocer' opposite offers an alternative for breakfast. While the on-site breakfast options may not be extensive, it's easy to walk into the city center for more choices.
Facilities

The focus seems to be more on the convenience of the location and the room sizes, making it a suitable option for short stays.

The hotel is located in the lovely JQ close to town, with a fabulous pizza place across the road and the Utilitia Arena nearby. The rooms are small but tidy and contain everything you need, offering good value for money, but they may feel a bit cramped if you're not staying alone. The service was attentive, allowing me to change the room size to accommodate my partner. The location is convenient, not too far from town, and there is a prepaid car park round the back. However, a smoking area with shelter could be an improvement.

My stay at the hotel was cozy and comfy with a great TV in the room. I really loved the control panels for lights and checkout, very convenient! The room was small but clean and comfortable. However, it is rather small, so something to consider if you aren't staying alone. Overall, a nice experience.

The hotel was smaller than expected and not very comfortable for a couple, especially the limited room between midnight and 1.30 am. The service was friendly enough, especially when I was moved to a disabled room. The location was good but the loud seagulls and lack of basic items like a kettle were a downside. The dining options were limited with only continental bags available at certain times. The facilities offered vending machines for snacks.

The hotel is in a quiet oasis close to lovely bars and restaurants, offering a peaceful stay. The rooms were decent but on the small side, providing a dark and quiet environment for a good night's sleep. The service was pleasant and understanding, with a friendly staff making our stay enjoyable. The location was ideal for our needs, within walking distance of various attractions, although be prepared for a 25-minute walk to the city center. Dining options in the local area were convenient, and the price was fair for the value received.
