Great for a small family or friends travelling together as it is a double bed with a single bunk on top. The unconventional full bathroom was good for purpose, towels were provided- the room has everything needed for a budget stay. Only a short walk away from New Street station though some confuse it for the other ibis budget in the area which I witnessed happen in the lobby. There was a small window you can open that was good for ventilation.

There were some issues with key card that made it difficult to leave and come back to the room without assistance from the front desk. After the first instance I took care to keep the new key card from the front desk away from anything that would demagnetise it. However when I attempted using it a few hours later I was locked out for a good 20 minutes while staff attempted to open the door with various keys. The room adjacent to mine had a similar issue but they were able to get into their room after 5 minutes of swiping their key card. The staff was helpful but suffice to say the hotel keys needs some upgrading across the board. They was a damp smell throughout the room when you first enter, likely from the shower that does dissipate after opening the window and exhaust fan.

Fantastic stay at Twilight and Shakia was a fantastic host who made sure I had everything I needed. The apartment was so nice I wished I never could have left! It's central to everything; the local shops, bars, cafe's etc and Highbury and Islington station is about a 10-15 minute walk. Highly recommend, you won't find a better place or host in the area.

Absolutely nothing! Everything about the apartment was amazing.

Good location - accessible by main road from many directions, while being in a quiet village with walks, pubs, shop and pharmacy. Good - but variable - breakfast (see below). Comfortable room, though poor air circulation as only a small window. Lovely staff.

Entrance - Reception poorly signed, and down natural stone path very broken and dangerous in places. Most rooms in modern block, not in country house, and tortuous route to breakfast. No lift to first floor rooms. Switches/wiring in new rooms bizarre - could not have single bedside light on; bathroom light switch not near bathroom door. Breakfast - hot buffet on some days, additional cold buffet on fewer days, table service but no buffets on quieter days with items not available on buffet days! Dressed fresh fruit only on some days. Poor air circulation in room - fan provided to compensate. No tissues, shoe cleaner, or vanity kit, though fixed toiletries good. No phone in room, so could not contact Reception. Intermittent or no signal on mobile phone services. Shower over round-bottomed and deep bath worked well, but hazardous as no grab rail. Excessive postings from parent company shortly before visit promoting extra food and drink spending - negated country house hotel friendliness and out of character. No EV charging, and offer of slow plug-in for £20 quite greedy - never mentioned good facilities at retail outlets nearby for very competitive rates (we recommend using Chargemap app).

Nothing really, maybe could have some more instructions on how to find the property (as it’s new our sat nav didn’t pick it up) and how to work bins etc (we found the key card but couldn’t work out how to operate the system once we were in - so couldn’t take recycling down when we were leaving) but nothing major!
