Settle in Southampton - Stylish Self Check-In Rooms & Suites

The code provided worked and it was easy to use There was some confusion as the electronic lock had a low battery, but it still worked

Very comfortable room with good facilities, the only challenge was the shelf over the sink, which made using the sink difficult

The entry process was seamless. The Wi-Fi was great. Tv was a little tricksy but thankfully someone was still signed in to iPlayer.Thanks ‘Josh & Helen’ The bed was very comfy. The room and bathroom were clean and the towels were nice. A 10/15 minute from Central station and I felt very safe walking home after work.

The parking. I pulled up and there was a space on the front drive, right next to two large industrial red bins…. There was no way I was going to risk driving down the narrow alleyway to park at the rear. The gloominess. The photographer deserves kudos for the promo pics…..I stayed in room 1 which is ground level at the front. The property is on a main road (it wasn’t super noisy though) and so you have to keep the blinds down as you can see in -I checked. There is only one lamp which swivels at will to either light the ceiling or interrogate you Gestapo style so the ‘big light’ had to be deployed. The smell. There was an odd damp smell. Thankfully I randomly had a scent diffuser in my car. The electricity. This tripped (I presume) during the night so no sockets were working the next morning. The starter pack. Apparently guests are issued with this at the beginning of their stay. I was there for six nights and when I messaged (there isn’t anyone on site) to ask for an additional loo roll I was told guests are encouraged to buy their own when their starter pack runs out. Speaking of runs……. The facilities. There was a kettle, microwave, small fridge, a coffee maker of some description, two mugs, one teaspoon. I messaged to ask if there was crockery or cutlery anywhere and was told to look in the brown unit in the hallway. There were two plates and random bits of cutlery. No glasses or bowls. When I looked later in the week there were glasses and bowls which I presume had been retrieved from guests rooms as they checked out.?? I asked if there was somewhere to wash the mugs (and bowl which I bought) as the bathroom sink is tiny (be careful washing your face in that sucker) but was told no. I wasn’t about to go out and buy a bottle of Fairy Liquid…..

Guter Ort, schöne Zimmer, Parkplatz, genug gross

- Kontakt mit Besitzer war schwierig - defekte Lampe im Schlafzimmer wurde trotz Telefonat mit Besitzer nicht ersetzt. - Heizung war ständig ausgeschalten, obwohl die Aussentemperatur nur 15 Grad war. Wir mussten drei mal dem Besitzer anrufen und ihn bitten die Heizung anzuschalten (am ersten Abend, am zweiten Abend und am dritten Morgen). Beim ersten Telefonat wurde ich bereits angeschnauzt, woher ich seine Nr. hätte, obwohl sie gross an der Tür angeschrieben steht. - ein kleiner Tisch mit 2-4 Stühlen wäre Wünschenswert

the apartment was clean and tidy and looked nice inside.

it was hard to park in the car park. cars were parked so close to the door in the front it wasnt easy to get in. The studio was on the top floor and the door opened off the stairs which were very steep. none of this was made clear in the details.

Good location

The heating was not working well. Rooms were very cold

Great room for Southampton at a good price. Nice size room with a comfortable bed. Small bathroom with hot water. Nice & warm from the cold! Location good did the centre.

Parking was confusing but took the space in front of the building.

Good location with parking

Clean, modern and nice location

A communal washing machine would be helpful and a full size fridge. Maybe microwave.
