The room was a little below average. There was a lot of noise from other rooms and in the hallway. The shower did not have shower curtains they were normal window curtains. The staff while we were there were very helpful and friendly.

In the morning a man just opened my door. I had the chain on so he couldn’t get in but as far as I can tell the electronic lock just wasn’t doing anything. Bit disconcerting.

A self contained well resourced room with a stove top as well as microwave (not that we used either), and located on the second floor looking through street trees on busy Lygon St. Limited on site parking, if you get there early.

In heart of Lygon st so great location. Front room which is a bit noisy but balcony option to Lygon st makes it a good trade-off. Stayed twice now and would again.

I had a Lygon Street facing room. The room itself is big and has a kitchen, and everything you need. But the noise from Lygon street is loud. Plus there is a restaurant/bar undernearth that was playing loud live music until 11:30 pm on a Monday night... So, not ideal if youre after an early nights sleep. I normally dont mind noise, but this was a little much for even me. The reception area is pretty small and underwhelming. The property itself is getting pretty tired. The staff were very friendly, and the location is great if you like lots of eating choices. You can partk across the road near the park for free from 6:30pm until 7:30 am. Otherwise parking options are expensive everywhere nearbye. The property was fine. Nothing terrible, just not particularly amazing either.

Fit for Purpose
The place was spotless. Couple of broken things but, they could still be used! My room was cold but fixed by having reverse cycle heating. Close to all the excellent Lygon street restaurants, bus stop outside the building. Staff were all friendly and are on front desk 24 X 7. Car spots are available by I didn’t need. Not flash but certainly “Fit for Purpose”!! I’d stay again 😉

Very central to where we needed and wanted to go. Room was very clean and reception staff were polite and helpful. Would stay there again when need a place to stay in that area. It suited our needs extremely well. Thank you to staff for treating us well. Would have loved a Nespresso pod Coffee Machine in the room if possible. That would have made it super excellent.
