1. Found it to be clean and tidy - only downside was that we did not have en-suit but there were plenty of washing facilities so no queue's.

"good basic accommodation " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/3/2012 Vote

2. The only downside I can think of is that our room was slightly cold.

"Absolutely amazing!!!! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 2/28/2012 Vote

3. The only downside to the bedrooms was the blankets provided on each bed were less than comfortable and were more like hospital bandage material than a cosy regular blanket.

"FANTASTIC LOCATION!!! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/14/2011 Vote

4. However the downsides to this place were the terrible wi-fi (frustrating for people trying to organise their travel), the hard bed and the fact that I was bitten by a bed bug when I was there, which has never happened to me anywhere else.

"Good location but didn't enjoy the hotel " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/26/2010 Vote

5. The only downside is that (and this is probably my fault), I was under the impression the bathrooms were dorm-style, with separate stalls and showers.

"A hidden gem! " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/23/2008 Vote

6. Only downside was a noisy, hot radiator at the head of the bed.

"Great for the price " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/25/2007 Vote

7. Only downside was there was just one elevator which took ages to come, the towels they give you are tiny and the bathrooms were quite busy on the day of check out.
