What did we like? Everything- this place takes great pride in what they do! From parking on site with the beautfiully presented garden area (but be ready for a hill park) to the friendly staff, the elevator to our floor, the beautifully appointed, sparkling clean rooms, very comfortable bed, with a pretty groovy kitchen for a motel! The bathroom was spotless with a spabath/shower (so need to step in) with nice soaps/shampoos. Also had a condenser washer/dryer which we were very grateful for (plus a sweet little drying rack if dryers aren’t your thing). Communal sitting rooms were stylish and brigh and very inviting -especially with a drinks menu! There was a great little gym too! The location is very near to a fair few cafe/restaurants- easy walking distance. Overwhelmingly it seems to be a student area with lots of life and positive energy. but there are just a few ‘dodgy characters’ as we see in all cities now. However, the Bluestone stands out as beautiful modern property in an area of really classic large old homes- gave me San Francisco vibes! I feel nothing would have been too big an ask for the staff, they were very helpful, but everything you would expect in a motel was catered for, and more. A truly lovely place to stay!

Modern and well-equiped room in a fantastic location. Walking distance to shops, restaurants and the train station. Would stay here again and would recommend. People with mobility issues should note that the car park is on a steep incline and getting suitcases in and out of cars is challenging.
