Blue Keys Hotel Southampton, Southampton

The hotel had very spacious rooms with a sloping ceiling on three sides, making it a bit challenging to move around, especially near the bed. The rooms were clean, well-equipped, and included a mini bar, but the prices, particularly for items like bottled water, were not the best. The location was convenient, within walking distance of Central Station and various cafes, but being at the top of the hotel involved multiple flights of stairs, possibly not suitable for those with injuries.

The hotel is located slightly outside the city center on a relatively quiet street. The rooms are cozy but have some drawbacks with sloping ceilings and temperature issues. The service is attentive and helpful, though the lack of elevators might be a consideration. The dining options are varied and of good quality. The location offers convenience but may require taxi rides for some distances.

I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel, tucked away on the ground floor, it felt like a little hidden gem. The rooms, although a bit tired, were spacious, clean, and well-equipped, including a mini-bar with slightly higher prices, but the complimentary bottled water was a nice touch. The location, slightly outside the city center, was convenient for my needs and not too far from essential amenities, making it a great value for the cost.
