“This no-frills hotel, currently undergoing upgrades, offers clean and comfortable beds, often at amazing value, especially if you find it on sale; plus, the staff are remarkably helpful and friendly. The location, in a quiet residential area near the university and O2 academy, feels safe, with 24-hour reception. I'd say it's a solid budget option.”
