Our stay here was okay I mean weâve been to worse places but as we arrived we were met with a hole in the floor between our 2 single beds. Then as we were going to microwave our food the microwave had mouldy food inside of it. The manager & cleaners did offer us a different room but we were settled by the time we found the food so we just stayed in our room. My husband went to lie on the sofa bed & the arm of the chair was hanging off. I went in the shower & the shower was hanging by a nail it could have fell off and caused a major leak! Water was cold. The manager was nice & friendly as was the 2 cleaners. I would say if youâre going to book this hotel just be careful. We removed a mattress & seen one single bed had a complete hole through the base which made the bed sink. The area has many shops & food places and 10 minutes from the city centre which is a bonus. Unfortunately this stay was not the cleanest but we arenât fussy. Thank you for our stay
Very basic, not the cleanest, piles of rubbish outside entrance. Ended up leaving. Asked for refund still waiting for reply off duty manager. Stains and burns on carpet.
Arrived to find directions sent us to the wrong place. Arrived at apartments and checked in. Room on 2nd floor.
No TV remote. 50% of LED spotlights not working. No light switch near bed (so had to stumble through dark room to bed). No reading lights. So eventually to bed.
Next morning dived in shower (quite good) to find NO TOWELS.
Very disappointed
You most certainly receive value for your pound here! The rooms are immaculate and the rain showers in the washrooms are amazing!! This is our 3rd stay here!
Ours is a family of 2 adults plus 18 yr old and 15 yr old, so the booking was for 3 ad + 1 ch. We were expecting bunk beds from other reviews. The first room (8) was very cramped and had a double only made up for 2 adults, we assembled the bunk beds ourselves. I went to ask for extra bedding but were then given the bigger room (2) which had 2 single plus the bunk beds.
This is where I will start to mark them down. The beds were fine with clean sheets and duvets. However the bunk beds had 1 sheet and a blanket each. The pillows on the bunk beds were giant leather things.
In the bathroom were 2 bath towels. I asked for more towels the evening we arrived and was told I would get them in the morning when housekeeping arrived. Still none in the morning so asked again and took a walk to the supermarket before showering, expecting them to be there when we got back. Still no, so the 4 of us had to shower with 2 towels. In the evening still only 2 towels. I asked in again and this time the guy on reception went and got some for us . So, the second morning we had a towel each for showering. BUT when we got back in the evening the room had been cleaned and we were left with only 2 towels again. Gave up asking at this point. (3 night stay)
The kitchen has no toaster/cookeer, just a coffee maker, microwave and a fridge. Not a kitchen but a cupboard. No hairdryer.
The rooms look well, recently done up and modern. Good TV.
Location not near anything. My fault though.
Can't review the apartments due to leaving after being verbally abused in the adjacent car park on arrival. I paid for the room as the agreement stated but would not venture into that area again. As I said I paid for the room and then was charged again two weeks later. This has now been returned to me.
The hotel was new, clean,comfortable with plenty of parking spaces. It's also located near shops and easy to locate. I will definitely patronise them next time.
