Problems in the bathroomcomplaints rising: 7.0 in 100 a year ago, 13.4 now30 of 2581 in 9 reviews
The bed was so uncomfortable, pillows weren't plump, shower tray was broken and you could barely move in the 'bathroom' with the sink being in the way of the shower door.
Booking network, August 2026, rated 5/10 by this guest
The rooms are tiny, the bathroom even worse—if you turn on the shower, water splashes all over the floor.

I didn't like that you had to pay per bag when you left them in luggage room before check in and then again after check out.
Booking network, June 2026, rated 7/10 by this guest
Room cleaning costs £20, and then you might as well just book a normal hotel.

There’s no elevator, and the stairs are extremely slim, and so are the corridors.
