This was without a doubt the worst accommodation I have ever experienced. In case you are encouraged by the photos on their website, the room we were given was MUCH more basic, which would actually have been OK... if it was clean. Unfortunately this was definitely not the case. The bathroom was absolutely filthy, grime caked on the bottom of... More

The first room I was placed in was horrendous. The whole room was filthy and the bath room was caked in dirt. Extremely unhygienic. Furthermore, the kitchen utensils I had ordered were nowhere to be seen. The second room was a little better, but the bath room was dirty there as well, and was not properly cleaned until I had...

I decided to stay @ the Hub because it seemed like a good place to have my own space - yet be able to socialise with other people too. How wrong could I be!?

First, the place is hard to get to, and there is no indication as to where the car park is, until you have checked in and received a key. The office wasn't staffed when we arrived and we had to summon someone using the buzzer on... More

New Year's eve on The Square! Great to be able to have a night out and walk home as opposed to jostle amongst parked cars and traffic jams after the big night. It's an inner city hotel so it's expected to have people around - even after midnight. A great place to be if you want to walk to anywhere.... More

I booked through WOTIF and the photos looked okay-I assumed the price was due to the rooms being small and bare-that was fine, we were just needing a place to sleep for a night. On arrival the duty manager could barely muster any enthusiasm to greet us, once we got in the lift saw the stained, grubby carpet we realised... More
