Pillows were not comfortable. Extra pillows readily provided on request.
JaneAustraliaIt was all very clean and in a great location.
It can be a bit noisy depending on who is staying. Our neighbouring guests arrived back at 3am and were quite noisy, however we were staying above a pub so always knew this…

MaxAustraliaGreat value for money
Easy access, quiet even though there is a pub downstairs. The pizza shop attached to the pub is absolutely amazing too. Great value for money. Would stay here again if I was in Newcastle for a night or two
AngelAustraliaincredible
amazing! even though it was on top of a bar it didn’t seem loud at all! the room was very nice and there was a side entrance door you can go through so you don’t have to walk through the bar
