Ok…. as a last resort

Ok hotel but very overpriced. Room was too hot, and air conditioning pre set to not go below 23 degrees so a noisy waste of time and energy. Great location. Felt like an inconvenience to the cleaning staff who took up the one lift and huffed as we tried to get to the stairs instead!

Dirty, filthy, overpriced dump, stay away !

Total ripoff, prices surged almost 100 percent. Room dirty, all soap receptacles empty, room had a used toilet paper roll, floors so dirty, my white socks were black, the room heater wheel broken off, it was on its side. Microwave in lobby filthy another guest was repulsed and wouldn’t use it. The desk manager was advised of these issues and didn’t offer to fix our room issues. The only offer a free breakfast and after seeing the microwave filth, we declined. Station away from this badly run dump !

The room was little more than a cell in an industrial estate. No facilities, even basic tea and coffee had to be purchased at (a surly) reception. Would not recommend.

I didn’t do much research before booking this place, but it is exactly what it says - budget. It’s extremely small and it does not have air conditioning. If you attend this place during the summer, there can be potential for a hot sleep! If you are cruising, it’s perfect because it’s cheap and it’s just a quick stay. If you are actually visiting Southampton for more than one night, I would NOT recommend this place.
