This is a summer lodging of the college, meant for students but renting out to guests of all ages 18+. Excellent location to go around the city or stroll to many of nearby parks. Perfect for a solo traveler with tight budget.

I do not consider this facility is a hotel. To get to the front desk you have to walk outside (about 100 yard) to get some help. There is no telephone in the room to reach the front desk. Only good thing I experienced was the front desk staff, generally friendly and helpful. I DO NOT CONSIDER THIS IS A HOTEL.

Great stay. It's a lower price for people who are spending their day seeing the sites, and coming back to regroup and sleep. Only issue, which they do try and address: Shower sets off the fire alarm. Even if it's not your room. Went off 2 nights during my stay. Rooms clean. You can drop off your luggage before check-in, and you can check-in much later than 2pm (if you're out n about).

You HAVE to be better at defining that this is a student residence not a hotel. The address was very difficult to find. Just be transparent and more explanatory. Also, tell people in advance that breakfast is faaaar from the residence. Frankilene at the snack bar was asked to microwave something for me, she was so rude and put out like I'd asked her to strip naked, she needs a serious attitude adjustment. Nice clean room, but the bed cannot be advertised as double, it's a large twin at best. You're dressing a monkey in silk here it was okay but you have to be honest. Once we found breakfast, it was exceptional. Reception staff we're very helpful and friendly.

Room was sufficient. Didn’t realize it was a college dormitory and finding reception was hard because of this. Not sure how it was advertised in Travelocity. Room smelled strongly of dog odor? Had to open window. That said, might use it again sometime.

The accommodation is conveniently located but not especially good value for money. Whilst the location is expensive it is stilll basic student accommodation and the price is still relatively high compared to others in the area. Also the staff insisted we should have photo ID, which is not stared on the booking and it's the first time I've ever been asked in the UK (including a few weeks previously in a similar area). I booked two rooms but the second was seen as a separate booking even though they only had my contact details. Despite arriving together my colleague was also asked for photo ID which he didn't have. The situation was resolved but this was unnecessary stress as the staff insisted ID was required in the UK hotel trade. This is not true and it is not a hotel; they can insist but should state it on their communication for the future.
