8/10

Incredibly reasonably priced stay on Easter weekend, can’t fault it, really good value
1-night trip

6/10

Horrid frontage and stairway but the room was clean and the chap on reception very nice. Decent basic accommodation.
3-night trip

8/10

Serene atmosphere
4-night trip

6/10

For the price it is okay but it is a walk from the city centre and feels like it is in a rough area. Have to call to be let in and don’t agree with having to provide photo ID as this isn’t required in the UK Suspect the property is primarily used by the council to house immigrants or homeless as the info leaflet says they’ll let local authorities know if you get kicked out for any reason. Room was surprisingly clean but small, mattress was thin and could feel the springs. When I arrived I didn’t think I would actually stay but it was clean enough and the inside is much better than the outside.
1-night trip

4/10

First impression was the hotel clean and tidy. My friend and I choose twin room option. I personally didnt get much sleep due to the mattress, there was no support, and the springs were pertruding, making it a very nosiy and uncomfortable night.
1-night trip

8/10

It’s a very basic B&B, I choose it because of the location, the receptionsit was very helpful, no problems there, but the room is quite small, the beds are terrible, there is mould on the bathroom wall, and stains on the towel. It’s not the best value for money, considering other options in the city, but it was about right for me purely because of the location just a 5 minute walk from the Mattioli Arena where I had business to do during my stay.

Good budget hotel in Leicester city centre.Would stay again.
1-night trip

4/10

Positives: the reception man was nice and the location was very easy to get to. Negatives: the room smelled bad, there was mould in the bathroom, and one of my pillows had mascara on. Additionally, the room was very cold, and the bed was not comfortable. Unfortunately the people in the room next door were very loud and woke me up at 5am- obviously not the fault of the hotel itself but another reason for a restless night. I don’t think I would stay again.

4/10

Advertised as a 3-star hotel it is in fact a very basic B&B over a shop. Stair carpet is threadbare and the the whole atmosphere is very rundown. I usually stay at the Premier Inn which is slightly less expensive and of a considerably higher standard

no real reception, really steep stairs & room at top of three flights - no lift, not in a nice area of town and entrance to 'hotel' exposed, felt quite vulnerable. not for solo travellers
