The communal areas are interesting and funky but the our room was hard to like - it could be much nicer with a bit of love and a lick of paint. I know times are hard, so I can forgive a tired look, but I don’t think there is ever an excuse for the kind of appalling smell that pervades the whole of the upstairs and made it hard to sleep. It’s a shame because the location is nice and it could be a pleasant place to stay.
