Excellent location for AO Arena with a 5 minute walk to the tram station and then 1 stop and at Victoria. Very clean and comfortable room. Will definitely use again. The customer service and politeness of staff was 2nd to none.

Overall a really pleasant stay 🙂

This hotel is in an excellent location as it is only a short taxi ride from the AO Arena. The hotel is really clean, the room was clean, and comfortable, and the right temperature. Our bed was comfortable and our accessible shower room was excellent. The staff couldn’t be more helpful both at check-in and check-out. Overall a really pleasant stay 🙂

Everything OK - Don't expect anything special!

Room was clean and comfortable. The rest of the Hotel was Okay - nothing special (including the breakfast). The lack of a tea/coffee facility in each room is poor - having to go down to the ground level for a hot drink (admittedly available 24 hours) is not acceptable for the price you pay to stay at this establishment. Other guests were extremely noisy until 3 am, speaking loudly and slamming room doors.

New management different vibe.

This is my third stay. I could tell it was under new management. Certain aspects of the service have changed. Initial reception didn't feel welcoming. The cost of breakfast is too high for what was on offer. Car park much more expensive. It served its purpose but I wasn’t wowed like previous visits.
