A little gem of a hotel that checked all our boxes for a convenient overnight stay before boarding our cruise.

The room was like a student accommodation.. very basic and no kettle facilities at the room. We asked for a kettle but no FREE tea bags, coffee sachets or no free milk..
The breakfast was too basic and is not worth £8.5 per person

The product is more basic than we expected given the price point (£105 for a double on a Saturday night in April). Overnight parking is £12 extra, kettle plus 2 coffee and teabag sachets and paper cups £6 extra. Surprised that shower cubicle emptied into the main room, ok for a couple but probably not suitable for just friends staying together. But room was clean, bed comfy and reception staff friendly. I dont think a room from a hotel chain can get more basic.

Good value hotel in central Southampton. Clean and comfortable. Ideal for short stays.
The people running it were very friendly on arrival. The rooms although feeling like a hostel were pretty clean. Unfortunately did not sleep well due to noise of the road and other people staying. Youths running up and down the hallways screaming their heads off at 3am obviously drunk or high. Wouldn’t stay again but was fine.
Hello. The check-in process was flawless starting with the email to pre check-in and concluding with our early arrival at the front desk where the staff took care of us quickly and efficiently which was appreciated since we had just flown in from Canada and were very tired. The rooms were clean, efficient and as described - closer to a dormitory room than a high end traditional hotel room - which was fine as we were only there for the one night prior to getting on to a cruise. The hotel is easily reached from the Southampton Central station, the cruise port and the Old Town.
Top floor I stayed on stunk of smoke and could hear people arguing several floors down

You get what you pay for.
Don't bother paying for the breakfast. The warm fatty meat selection and what looked to be day old cheese is the highlight of a poor selection.
The rooms were generally clean. Small, practical and good for a single night. Not longer.
