Apartments are situated on a side street so only limited disturbance from late night revellers (expected in central locations such as this). No dedicated parking facilities but were able to use those at nearby apartments operated by same company (parking charge was also reasonable when compared...

Just stayed 4 nights at Roomzzz. The rooms are lovely, modern and well appointed. The kitchen and appliances are great. The fridge is a decent size too. The staff are super helpful and it was great that the desk is staffed 24/7. Laundry is located on two levels, they sell laundry pods at the front desk for 50p which is so handy. The front desk also sells some basic grocery items which is also convenient. Would definitely stay here again!
