    The location is perfect, right in the city centre and a stones throw from the railway and metro stations. Our room was spacious enough and comfortable for one night, but it's very basic. This leads into the cost however which was extremely reasonable and very budget friendly. Staff that we dealt with were all polite, friendly and courteous. Can't comment on breakfast facilities as we decided to go out for breakfast.

    First stay here as it was a very good price with breakfast. Handy location for coach and rail stations and not too far from the city centre. The staff were very welcoming.

Several nice touches you wouldn’t expect from a budget hotel, like books you can borrow, and free tea/coffee in the reception.

    Sleeperz is a nice twist on the budget hotel. Nice simple rooms with everything you need. Clean and welcoming, the only thing I would say is the aircon is a bit flaky. Excellent breakfast and a brilliant location for the station. Stayed a couple of times for work and was very impressed.

Clean rooms, friendly staff, and a surprisingly cozy atmosphere made it a pleasant experience. The city centre location was convenient, and the affordability added value.

    This was a budget hotel so expectations were not high. We travelled from Liverpool to see Ed Sheeran in Sunderland. Basic room but it was clean and comfortable. Shower was great! Comfy bed! Quick check-in and hassle free parking. Rang down for extra pillows, delivered to room in 5 mins. Staff were so friendly and helpful, helped with directions to train centre etc. Fabulous location to city centre, 10 min walk. Breakfast was a takeout bag which we expected with plenty in it.
