8/10 Very good

Reasonable stay

Good stay for the price. Can understand previous feedback but we found this to be a reasonable stay for the money. Room wasn’t great but had all the amenities we needed prior to getting a train the following day.

Cheap and good location, facilities as expected however, struggled to get hot water for the shower (we were told after we needed to leave the water running a long time. Staff were not very friendly and made us feel like we were an inconvenience for simply checking in! Facilities said luggage storage is available, it was but it was just left in the corner of the breakfast room - we appreciated it all the same. By far the worst thing (and the main reason for low scores and why we will NOT return) was that during our breakfast a staff member cleared his throat loudly and then spat into the bin next to the coffee machine - disgusting ! He then continued to clear tables ! We left immediately!

Disappointing

Room was small shower was terrible and very dated needs updating breakfast poor
Valerie, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

This place was a mess. Surprised it's on Expedia. First, they charge for Wifi, 2.5L per day. The bathrooms are coverted closets literally, can barely move. Breakfast is a joke-stale cereal, some bread and instant coffee. Room key doesn;t work for the front door half the time.
Steven, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

It's very dirty and the quality of the interior is old looking. We also found dirty male underwear in the wardrobe. We booked this hotel last minute as we needed to go to a party and didn't want to stay awake till 5am. I wouldn't recommend it for more than one night. Breakfast was very basic and served in bowels that looked dirty.
Enrico, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Cheap but dont expect a good nights sleep

Shocking quality of bed, just so old that you cant even sleep on it, i had to sleep on top of the mattress to make it even close to comfortable but i guess its cheap! Single glassed windows means you hear traffic and people all night
James, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

Desk clerk was rude about my not understanding his confusing instructions. WiFi not included in price but available for an extra charge. Room was dirty. Area behind toilet looked worse than any single guy bathroom. Photos are deceivingly nicer than the rundown, dirty room.

4/10 Fair

Very bad shower just a trickle.
Linda, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

Bathroom was too small and not comfortable to use. Bloke manning reception took ages to open door on checking in
Phil, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

I am very careful about writing negative reviews but what was evident from this property is that the owner only cared about providing the bare minimum or less. You simply cannot make a ‘wardrobe’ from various scrap pieces of wood and a botch it together with 100 screws and think that is acceptable. The carpets were dirty throughout and varied as you walked in colour and pattern. Myself and my son decided within 1 minute we just could not stay there. As per your policy you have kept one nights stay as a charge. That’s ok. Please improve.
Anthony, 2-night trip

Tatty hotel poor cubicle bathroom in room, shabby bed & divan … but the staff were very helpful the tried to fix my broken TV then offered me another room
Paul, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

Don't book here

The hotel was tired and not maintained, our room was v basic, the sheets were clean but the room felt like it had not been aired and we all slept bad. The bathroom had a bad damp smell, the shower curtain smelt terrible. The breakfast was basic but they had used pots of peanut butter and Nutella out for use which was not sanitary. This was definitely not worth £200 and I'm very annoyed that we paid this money for this establishment.
