    inaccessible heating
    low tv volume
    automatic light

    The heating wasn't controllable, set at 21 degrees, yet it felt cold at times. The TV volume was capped too low to enjoy comfortably. In the bathroom, the light sensor shut off automatically after a minute, forcing us to wave a hand while showering to keep it on.

    the hotel was located near to shops and the market, the town centre and close to shops. had essentials needed in the double room, including a microwave oven, an electric kettle, and fridges. i slept in the very comfy bed. the location of the property was particularly good, in the middle of the city. plus, i was not too far from duke street arcade.

    bad service
    false advertising

    This 'apartment' was a letdown, not even close to what I paid for, just a tiny studio with no terrace or kitchen. The check-in was a total disaster! I mean, no complimentary chocolates or anything? I almost considered giving this a good review, but sadly just couldn't!

    excellent location
    modern room
    tight space

    The location here is just 👌! Easy walking access to everything we wanted. Room was neat & modern, but it was pretty tight for space. Would love a better pillow choice for sure!

    noisy mornings

    Loved the cozy vibes and the beautiful garden area. Walking to the cathedral and markets nearby was a delight as well.

    liked everything except the noisy early mornings 😊.

    comfortable bed
    spacious room
    convenient location
    unresponsive heating

    comfortable stay with minor inconveniences

    The bed provided excellent comfort, with pristine linen and plush pillows. The room offered ample space, bright decor, and large, cute windows. Proximity to shops and good transport made exploring easy, though I found the location opposite a stadium lively, which might not suit everyone.

    The heating seemed fixed at a lower temperature at times, making the room feel a bit chilly.

    check-in issues
    different room

    The place looked nice from the outside at least. It was in a good spot for walking around the area, and i met some friendly people. The shower had hot water, cool. They had a good big tv with some streaming options too.

    I had big problems with check-in and the landlord didn't seem to care. The place was totally different from what i expected and paid for.

    The room at Central Studios was great! It had a fully equipped kitchen with all the kitchenware I needed to cook my own meals. It felt just like home. I loved that there was a microwave in the room. It made it so convenient for heating up leftovers or making a quick snack. The electric kettle was a lifesaver for my morning cup of tea. It made waking up so much easier. The soundproofing in the studio was amazing. I never had to worry about being disturbed by noise from the outside. The patio was a nice addition to the room. It was a cozy spot to relax and enjoy the fresh air.

    The only thing I didn't like was that the room didn't have a toaster. I enjoy having toast for breakfast, so I missed not having that option.

    I absolutely loved the bright paint on the walls of the hotel. It gave the place such a cheerful and welcoming atmosphere. The general areas were spacious and well-maintained, making it easy for me to navigate with my senior mobility. The hotel's accessibility for senior people was excellent, with wide hallways and ramps that made it easy for me to move around. It was such a relief to find a hotel that considered the needs of older guests like myself.

    I would have appreciated a support bar in the bathroom for added safety.
