“I find it interesting how this warehouse in Bedminster provides a gem of a stay, offering more than just a room, with its communal kitchen and honesty bar adding a social vibe. The location, set against a backdrop of vibrant street art, is unexpectedly appealing, even for those unfamiliar with the area. Rooms are compact but cleverly designed, ensuring comfort and convenience, which I appreciate. The responsive communication from the team also stood out.”

Charmed by the Great Location

easy self-check-inperfect beddingconvenient access
The hotel's self-check-in was easy, I was charmed. The bedding was perfect, and the room was clean. I appreciated that. Access to the city centre was convenient using the bus. The bus stop was nearby. I found many cool cafes and restaurants very close.
The radiator in the main bedroom wasn't working. It was colder than I wanted. There was another radiator, though it didn't heat the whole space.

The location was great. It was close to East Street and the Harbourside. I loved that there was granola and fresh coffee in the room. The shower was good, and the bed was big and comfy.
The communal area, including the kitchen, was very dirty. They mentioned a deep clean will happen (after I told them), however, cleaning should take place after each paying guest. This clearly did not happen. The air-con and heater unit made a horrendous loud noise all through the night. The customer service was lacking.

I appreciated the granola and milk provided for breakfast. It was a nice touch. the communal space was fun. I enjoyed the well-stocked and reasonably priced honesty bar.
There was a low number of plug sockets in the room. It was a slight inconvenience.

Adequate Stay with Some Issues

broken radiatorno fresh milk
The radiator in the main bedroom was broken. This meant it was colder than I would have liked (especially since it was november). Luckily, there was another radiator in the small bedroom, but it did not heat the whole place at all. I also noticed the absence of fresh milk.

tender moments at the hideaway

sweet locationfamily hugtender paintingsoft dreams
the location was sweet as sugar, near shops and treats. the whole place felt amazing, like a family hug, and the games were a good dance. our beautiful double room extra bed bloomed, and the dark bathroom finish was a tender painting. the shower whispered perfect streams, and our shared bed was like a cloud, the pillows like soft dreams.
The light from the hallway poured in through cracks under the door. It disturbed my dreams, a small price for such a sweet stay.

The Air conditioning was faulty and produced a very loud noise ALL night. It was difficult to sleep, and this should have been addressed. I found the level of cleanliness in the communal kitchen unsatisfactory, and it was not cleaned to a high standard.
