    The room was freezing until after we'd asked for the heating to be put on. There was only 1 bath towel when we arrived but another was delivered later. The double room was tiny & as we were there for a week with large suitcases & work bags, it was TIGHT.

    Location good, hotel quirky, manager responded to issues reasonably quickly. The location for access to the Brighton Conference Centre was good.

    only thing i didn’t like was that we could hear everything outside but that was just down to where i our room was i think as was right next to front door

    i think the location was perfect and the room was spot on if i booked on the actual website it would of been cheaper i think but for what we paid we were impressed i love how easy everything was to access and was a nice easy getaway

    Quite noisy as there is a jazz club right across the road. Foam ear plugs are provided, so I guess the owners know about this.

    Location good for beach and Brighton lanes, rooms nice, bedding comfortable. Easy access to room via key pad on outside door and room. Communication with staff on phone good.

    Can be noisy at times, some parts of the room could be doing with a good dusting. The basement room had a damp smell upon arrival - probably due to the lack of ventilation from having no windows.

    Really great location, rooms were nicely decorated, staff in the hotel were very helpful in replacing towels, toilet room and other bits we needed.

    External appearance of the hotel, looked like a hostel or something. When you go in the main hallways look a bit strange and didn't feel of a high standard. Narrow corridors When we left the following morning there were people sat outside our bedroom on the floor, who we assumed were cleaners waiting for us to leave but this was a bit strange. The sound proofing between the floors is poor, we were woken really early by the person in the room above us being sick, very loudly for ages.

    Room design. Facilities in the room. Location.

    Nothing really. It was all great.

    We originally planned to stay in a hotel just over the road, but after checking in and going to our room, we had to cancel and book somewhere else (it was definitely a poor hotel). This hotel was a stark contrast; had easy and quick check-in - we had to speak to the staff as we booked so late and didn’t get an access code, but they were very quick to help and were very lovely - the room was beautifully lit, the decor was superb and modern, the bed was incredibly large and comfy and despite being a room on the bottom floor (which usually puts me off), it didn’t make a difference as the windows were blurred and so it felt very private but still had natural light to enter too. The bathroom facilities were great and modern. The sink was a tad small but honestly wasn’t that much of a problem. There were coat hooks, bed stands and a little table for us both to use. I would 100% stay here again and plan on doing so on any new excursions to Brighton; not to mention it’s in a superb location if you like being in the heart of the city. Obviously it was more than we wanted to pay (and we actually never got a refund for the other hotel so paid just under £200 for the two together) but you certainly do get what you pay for, which we have learnt.

    Lots of narrow stairs that could be a problem for some people.

    Cosy room that was clean and comfortable. Nice and central and close to sea front. The fridge and microwave a good addition, plus plates, cutlery and bottle opener/corkscrew. Easy online checkin and cardless entry.

    Not the accommodation's fault but something to be aware is that if you're in room 2, you'll get to hear every time someone enters and leaves the building as it's by the entrance and window is just opposite a bar where they play loud music until late. They did leave ear plugs in the room, which were really helpful.

    Good location (1 min to the sea), comfortable bed, clean, easy check-in and out, good amenities.

    For someone who likes to style their hair on a daily basis, it would have been nice to have a plug socket near the full-length mirror, which was on the back of the bathroom door, just so I could style my hair in front of it. As it was, I needed to do it blindly, but it wasn't exactly a huge issue.

    Location was perfect! I liked how easy it was to check in and the bed was super comfortable. The amenities were lovely; Biscoff biscuits (my favourite), coffee, tea and a fridge for my personal use. Shower pressure was great. And I really loved that it came with shower gel, shampoo & conditioner, which I wasn't expecting.

    Shower head a bit blocked, as was the drain so built up a bit - whole thing needed a deep clean in nooks and crannies. Never saw any staff so no personal touch though did have a text to check ok and re WiFi. Curb appeal non existent... buy yourselves a new door or paint it !

    Really comfy, room was warm on entry, door access worked flawlessly, location was great, phone charge sockets a life saver.

    Room had everything we needed, comfy bed and hot shower, and the fridge and microwave came in useful. We stayed on a Sunday so it was pretty quiet, but they supply ear plugs and eye masks which is a thoughtful addition. View out of window not great but we stayed for the location not the view. Door code made it easy to get in and out, and not have to worry about losing the key...

    We didn't like that we were all very separate in the building. One of our friends had the bedroom at the very top of the building while the rest of us were ground floor. It was also not very clean, there was so much dust you could write in it, the cups were also very filthy and we had to wash them all up before using them.

    We loved how modern it was and how amazing the decor was. We were also very impressed with the big room 1. It was great having they living room area so we were able to get ready together and mingle. Absolutely LOVED how central it was, we were within walking distance to absolutely everywhere and didn't need to pay for any cabs.
