Negative Reviews

negative:

Hotel can prove difficult to find

A fairly large number of guests have mentioned that although the general location of the hotel is good, it is actually hard to find. You'll need to navigate a university campus with several car parks. Not all guests have found this all that simple.

negative:

Limited availability of staff

Staff availability here has often disappointed guests, with a fair number suggesting that when they arrived there was no-one to welcome them other than a security guard to buzz them into the building. Staff availability seems to be particularly limited at weekends.

negative:

Surroundings vary between term time and holidays

The atmosphere of the campus here varies between term time and holidays. During term time, the campus is lively with lots of amenities open and available but is rather noisy. During holidays, it's nice and peaceful but with closed amenities and too deserted for some.
