it was ok for what we needed.
somewhat dated
Great staff
Great location. Contacted owners who were very helpful
Nothing
Personal war sehr nett
Das obere Zimmer war ein bisschen unbequem im waschbecken konnte man kaum hände waschen und am Fernseher hat man sich den Kopf gestoßen
La posizione vicinissima alla stazione ferroviaria, dei pullman e del centro
La pulizia. La moquette va pulita bene e spesso altrimenti diventa un covo di schifezze
the guy in the room next door smoked weed all night and it stunk out the whole apartment and floor which was pretty grim but besides that the place was nice
All off it
Shower door hitting sink
Close to everything
Sticky bathroom door very hard to open
It was very peaceful & everyone was respectful. Check in & check out was seamless

Posizione perfetta, grandezza della stanza buona, personale gentile e subito pronto a rispondere a esifenze
Bagno un po' piccolo
The hotel has many qualities that made my stay pleasant. Its location is excellent: just a short walk from the city center and close to main tourist attractions, which made exploring the city extremely easy and enjoyable. Self check‑in and check‑out were smooth and efficient. I also appreciated the overall cleanliness of the room, the quiet atmosphere, and the comfortable room, which offered good space and useful wardrobes for storing clothes.
There are a few aspects that could be improved to make the experience even better. The bathroom was internal without a window. The curtains let in some light early in the morning due to the lack of shutters or blackout blinds, which might affect sleep for light sleepers. there is not parking but being close to the railway station there are many silos.
Very nice place to stay for a few days
The room was spacious and the bed was comfy. Checking in and out was exceptionally easy. Good location.
Paying for parking
.needs a do up
Very tired rooms
Hôtel simple mais correct, situé en plein centre-ville mais aussi à quelques minutes de la gare, dans une zone tranquille. Chambre propre, agréable, très bien équipée.
Clean condition bed was comfortable staff were accommodating! Booked for an extra night very last minute no hassle at all!
Noise road! But that can't be helped! Room was very hot and stuffy could do with air con or a fan at least.
Very central
A bit light on teabags etc. Would of been nice to have a welcome pack . Couldn't get shower to work and the fuse was hidden in corner.
Bon rapport qualité prix pour un budget modeste.
Parking payant impossible à payer avec l application Ui ne marchait pas. Beaucoup de stress lié au problème de parking
Very quiet area where the facility is.
The room was very small. Attention can be given to the cleanliness.
Frigo et micro onde dans la chambre Salle de bain individuelle Possibilité de laver et sécher ses vêtements Très proche bus et centre ville
Le matelas était inconfortable. Il n'y avait pas assez de sachets de thé et de café pour la durée de mon séjour.
Helpful staff after the code for the door was wrong in messenger
Bed was slightly uncomfortable and the WiFi was rubbish but worked eventually
Great location, great value. Would recommend.
The main door stuck in the carpet when opening but I'm been fussy
I like the place because you can cook for yourself
I didn't see blender in the kitchen
It's ok
Super Nova was a complete treat! Beautiful décor, comfy bed, sparkling bathroom. And thoughtful touches: a double-header shower, desk and plugs with USB ports, wooden fittings and furniture, directional reading lights, and a tea-making station. Whether you're in Aberdeen for holiday or business, you may not want to leave your room!!
Asukoht, privaatsus, vaikus.
Buena atención, muy limpio y excelente equipamientos
Todo bien
Great communication, service
A better Internet is needed
The location is good, close to Union Square.
The name is quite misleading. It is not a hotel but an Airbnb. The room is small, old and dirty, and I got sick the next day. Eventually, I had to leave the hotel early, even though I could not get my money back.
Perfect place for introverts
Good location for city centre, easy to access with communication from staff over WhatsApp, good shower, fridge and microwave in room. Would definitely stay again.
Bed wasn't the comfiest and was fixed with a bit of wood attached underneath but it done the job for a couple nights. Floor under bed not the cleanest as there was old socks and stuff on the floor underneath but overall wasn't bothered and would stay again.
Ótima relação preço-qualidade. Quarto confortável para uma pessoa, com boa luz. Localização a 15 minutos do centro em área tranquila.
As instalações são já antigas e pouco renovadas, a cama não é muito confortável para quem tenha problemas de costas mas para uma noite é ok. Ouve-se tudo dos outros quartos, mas novamente, isso pode não ser um problema. Tem mini frigorífico mas não estava a funcionar. No geral são apenas detalhes pequenos que não impedem que se tenha uma boa estadia, se for curta.
Best for solo traveler, they have microwave, small fridge freezer, kettle which was very helpful.
They should put mixer tap, as hot tap is some very hot, can't wash face . Would request the management to address the separate tap issue in the washing basin.
Great value price. Excellent amenities with fridge and microwave in the room and even access to a separate kitchen for all guests. Good size room. Very quiet throughout the stay. Perfect location for Aberdeen city centre and Aberdeen Music Hall at the top of the road.
Nothing that I didn't like on the stay.
Great location. Good facilities
Nothing
The room. Microwave
The bath area is small. The first room was very small.
Nothing
The room smelt terribly. It was stale and run down.
The shower was great and the bed very comfortable
Convenient location
Room was shabby and dated, wallpaper was peeling, shower door didn’t fully open without hitting the toilet, poorly lit by one ceiling light and the only mirror was in the bathroom
Communication for access was clear (there is no reception). The room had kettle, fridge and microwave which meant you could be self sufficient if you didn't want to eat out all the time. Close to the main city centre.
There wasn't anything that I didn't like given the price I paid (£36 per night). It was clean, the mattress was a bit tired and the shower a little temperamental with temperature. It didn't bother me so much to contact the staff about it.
N/A FOR BREAKFAST. BED CREAKED A LOT . HOT WATER TAP NOT WORKING PROPERLY.

L emplacement et les équipements de la chambre
La literie était très usée et je me sentais un peu en insécurité
Nice clean room good price the only downside is to get you key you have to put in the combination the numbers are faded and very hard to see with poor eye sight this is big deal as you simply can't in to your room if you cant see the numbers
The numbers are not clear on the keycard to get in to your room
スタッフが親切できちんと対応をしてくれた。午前0時を回り、オートロックが開かないトラブルがあったが、すぐに対応をしてくれた。建物は古いがきちんと清掃されていて、アメニティも充実していた。Wi-Fiの電波は非常に強く、快適にインターネットが使えた。価格を考えれば非常に優れた宿。長期滞在にも向いている。
In the city centre.
The parking available.
Location, cleanliness, heating good. Kitchen available
Room, bathroom are confined. Hard to seat on the chair and work on the table.
Ce n'est pas un hôtel de luxe, mais il fait le job. On a eu la chance de ne pas être côté route, du coup, c'était très calme. Le micro onde et le frigo sont vraiment un plus pour les soirs où nous ne voulions pas sortir
Le seul bémol était le matelas qui aurait vraiment besoin d'être changé
Great location , comfortable room. Good value
The room had all the necessary amenities and it was spacious.
The door didn't quite lock from the outside, so I was careful not to leave any valuables inside whilst I was out. But there was a chain lock so when I was inside I still felt safe.
Close proximity to train station and centre. Good instructions sent for access to building and rooms. Flexible if you need to extend your stay.
Shower area wasn’t the cleanest.
Manageable
The location is good. It was a pleasant surprise to find a wee refrigerator in the room, as well as a microwave, plus a kettle. The room had a nice window, and the staff respond quickly.
Upon my arrival, the room needed vacuuming, the bathroom floor near the shower is in serious need of repair, not to mention the gaudy caulking in the shower. An extra toilet roll should have been provided every time the room was cleaned. (Cleaned once every three days, which is fine). The bath and hand towels could be used to make rags. Two different bath towels I had been given had about 3 holes, and fraying strings at the edges. The bathroom door squeaked loudly and unbearably. I managed to fix it myself. The walls are paper thin and the neighbour next to me was always slamming his door two to three times to try to close it. --If this had been my guest house, I would have been appalled to have someone stay in it, given its condition. That is to say, its condition is passable, but not looked after, certainly not with thoughtfulness, love or care. Also, whatever fragrance it is that is used to launder the sheets and towels, or sprayed in the room, is smelly, a sickening floral odor.
Good hotel
Everything was excellent and communication with management was excellent and helpful
Can’t think of anything
Every thing was perfect
None
The bed was quite low and squeaked but didn't effect sleep. Shower was on the small side but did it's job. 9/10
Friendly staff who returned a watch I left after
Nothing, great value
Value for money. Late night check in. Friendly owner.
Facilities in line with the price. No complaints.
Ok
Strategic location
Was very central
All ok
The room was perfectly warm for the time of year (December), and I appreciated having a microwave and a fridge to myself. Also, when there was some confusion about where the key locks were, my call to the hotel staff was answered quickly.
The wall between my room and the one next to it was quite thin, so I was kept awake for a while by my neighbour repeatedly opening and closing their door for some reason...
Great Central location. Easy check in and check out.
Very dated, the room had an unpleasant smell.
El sistema acceso es bastante práctico la verdad, está en una excelente zona puedes ir andando a todos los sitios de interés del pueblo
El colchón no era para nada cómodo
Location
Nothing
Basic needs eg: microwave, fridge, kettle and hair dryer + iron outside are provided.
Wet carpet and smell of cleaning stuff (carpet dried and smell disappeared the next day) and the noise (banging of door) from other guest next to my room.
Lovely location off the city centre, decent size room with tv and double bed , very quiet n peaceful also, easy check in/out
A little bit old fashioned/ dated which is okay!
