Mould/ Disappointment
Our room was compact, no blinds, no curtains at the 5ftx5ft window that overlooked a courtyard and a stairwell. We were unable to have the lights on or change in the room (this would have been classed as indecent exposure). The shower room had mold on the ceiling and tiles. We reported to reception the blinds and curtains were missing on two different occasions, 2 nights we slept without and coverage on the window. The night before we were taking an early flight reception decided to offer another room, so we moved late at night. The new room had blinds and curtains and faced a forest so no curtains needed. Least to say they declined a refund. The 2night stay cost £200+ for a mouldy shower room and room without any curtains or blinds. Needless to say they care more about money than their customers.

Lovely room and nice, clean kitchen. Staff were super friendly and helpful! Breakfast was a nice touch too. Room was extremely hot and having the window open meant that we could hear the international/summer camp kids all night who were very loud! Not the hotels fault ofc but don't expect a peaceful night's sleep lol

Check-in Delay
Check-in at 3.00pm was extremely slow as a lot of the rooms and key cards didn't appear to be ready. There wasn't enough check-in staff on duty so a long queue formed.

Suitable to sleep
We stayed for a few nights and found it was lovely and big campus. We weren't told where to have breakfast and we got lost trying to find it, then we didn't get told what we could eat in terms of our coupons and we didn't get to eat the following two days after paying for it. The room was standard but good enough for staying in for sleeping, the sink was leaking, the tap was cracked and we got soaked in the rain and the radiator didn't even turn on. Was not happy but least we got them dry the old fashioned way. The nubar club was nice and cheap for food, the sharer we had was delicious and the pizza. Overall a pleasant enough stay
