Do not stay here

We booked one of the XL bookcase rooms for my partner and I as we’re both big readers and thought this would be perfect for us! We were really excited about the idea of sleeping inside of a bookcase. When we got to the hotel we were shown to the Mrs De With room and told we would be staying there. When I told them I didn’t book this room, I was told we’d been moved rooms as there was an issue with the bed in our room. I asked when this issue occurred and was told it happened 2 days ago. Why they couldn’t inform me or get a new bed in 2 days in preparation of a booking I do not know. The room had nothing to do with books, had a picture of a bum, and was also right next to the bar, making it very loud until 11pm. They made out as if they were being uber kind by giving us a slightly bigger room than the one we booked and we would therefore not get a refund. When I looked online it turned out the room they put us in was the only one left for the night. It was still available to book for that night! If someone had booked this room last minute we would have been left with no where to stay! The most they could offer us was a free breakfast, which consisted of 2 kinds of small, cold pastries, some cold meats, bread, juice, fruit, tea and coffee. This didn’t make up for the fact we’d been moved rooms and completely ruined the trip for us. We have since contacted hotels.com to ask the hotel for a refund and they have refused. Completely unacceptable. Will not be staying here again.

Everything was decent and the staff were super friendly and effective. The only bad thing which destroyed my whole experience was the soundproofing and location. The place sits right next to a pub or a casino of sort and that thing blasted music 11:00pm - 4:00am nonstop! And it vibrated my entire sleepingpod - you could imagine at this point that i got zero sleeping hour. Unless they do something about it - i find it hard to recommend city trip at this location

Bed bugs and very uncomfortable

Stayed here in 2017 and it was so much cleaner and cooler back then. Our recent stay was uncomfortable and the service was slow. There were bed bugs, as well. Should not be allowing booking until you sort that out. Very unfortunate how downhill this place has gone.

Is a rather funky and novel place to stay, but don't expect 4-star service or facilities. Definitely a good deal for the price, though.

I really loved how central it was and how easy to get to by tram. The hotel was really lovely with great staff and looked very clean and well kept. the concept of the rooms is so very cool, it was like a magical world! The shared showers were very messy in the morning, there was a blocked drain in a sink and in a shower. We stayed in the VW van and the ventilation was broken so it was very warm and stuffy. The bed was great though and very comfy

The room was unexpectedly small. With the bed in the center, there were only 2 feet space on each side and we could not even fit a small table in the room. We had to go out of the room to the dining area to use our computer. They charged us almost $200 a night. This is way below the $200 hotel standard. Worst of all, in the early morning next day, we found 5-6 bed bugs in our bed, each full of fresh red blood. This scared the hell out of us. We haven's seen bed bugs for decades. It was really scaring situation. My wife got bug bites all over her body and suffered badly. We immediately complained. The good thing is the hotel manager sincerely apologized and fully refunded our money. I believe the hotel should be close for a few days, thoroughly clean the entire hotel and completely disinfect all the rooms before reopen.

No fruit options for breakfast. Room was rather small and smelly. Hardly enough room to fit suitcase. Bathrooms weren’t overly clean either. Expensive for what you get if honest. Wouldn’t go back.

Absolutely everything about this quirky charming eclectic place is amazing!! The owner and everyone one of the staff I encountered were so kind and thoughtful. I arrived on 10/13 having left my medications in the United States airport I was layovers in. I was absolutely stressed and in pain. The front desk accommodated my and found a room that was downstairs for me to bush was easier on my knee. I stayed 3 days. On my 2-3 day I stayed in my original room booked upstairs behind a bookcase for days 2-3. Such a great location to get anywhere from the tram 17 and 13 will get you into the center of town. Shared bathrooms were new to me but quickly accustomed and felt safe and very clean. Similar to being in a cool loft space of a friend and just going downstairs to use the shower and toilet and sink. Must visit the flower stand at the end of the street and the little cafe Benji’s. The very best chai latte and French toast!!!
