“I found it to be a practical choice, especially for university-related visits, with clean, simple rooms and a good breakfast. Its setting within the university's parkland offers a secure and tranquil environment, distinct from typical hotels. The proximity to campus bars, cafes, and sports facilities such as tennis courts and a dance studio adds unexpected value.”

surprisingly good stay!
reasonable size roomfree parkingrestful placegood service
My room was a reasonable size with all the basic amenities i needed. the parking was included (which is always a bonus!) and breakfast was really good. i especially appreciated the super calm place away from the town's hustle. the check-in process was quick. It took only a few minutes. i felt secure because multiple doors were between the entrance and my room. the location is easy to get to from the city center. A regular bus service runs here. the staff were very nice and helpful. the room was basic, but clean and perfectly comfortable for a short stay. i was happy to find good and secure parking on-site. the grounds of the campus were lovely. the breakfast was excellent (i enjoyed cereal, juices, yogurt, and a full english). it was great value for money and located just on the edge of the city.
the signage around the car park wasn't great, so it was a bit of a walk to the room, especially when it was dark.
