The staff were excellent and rooms clean. However as someone with a disability both lifts went out of order so long flight of stairs meant problems. Plug in heater in the room fused into the socket. Could have started a major fire. Will definitely return but only when the refurb complete. Price was excellent value for money

Not how advertised
Nothing like it looks on the website or photos, quite run down, doors feel like they aren’t properly closed or locked, as two young girls staying we felt quite uneasy walking through the hotel etc. The room was relatively clean and bed was okay but very basic and looks like the whole building needs redecorated and upgraded.

Would stay again
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Let us check in early as our room was ready on arrival which was great . It’s a good location. Could of been cleaner as in windows and and parts not been dusted. I suppose this reflex’s on the price though. Bathroom was clean and sheets were fresh. Tv worked well. Beds were very comfy. Overall we had a lovely stay and would definitely stay at this hotel again

Online pictures Bad Representation of hotel
The room itself was clean enough and didnt have the awful smell that the rest of the building had !!! The entrance area smell is horrendous and needs urgent attention!! The man behind the desk seemed friendly enough but overall the photos on the website DO NOT represent the actual building. And the building was freezing with missing ceiling tiles! Cheap hotel at £45 for the night but would not recommend this hotel for anyone wanting something even half decent. Wish i could add a photo of how bad the smell was in the main areas.

Poor Hotel, poorly renovated.
Poor from start to finish. Room was small and very basic, not anything like the images they have on their website. Bathroom had black mould all around the bottom of the shower. The waterproof membrane in the bathroom was lifting and peeling. Bed was uncomfoatable, with only 2 very flat and cheap pillows, and then we were woken by other guests screaming and creating in the hallway way after midnight. Would not recommend.
