When we arrived the reception staff were lovely but we were let down to find the room we had been given was not clean at all and very dated. Stains on the carpet, Tobacco scattered on side table, floor looked like it wasn’t hoovered efficiently and curtains needed a good wash and dusting then when you opened them they had spider webs and dead flies down the side. We stayed for 1 night and had paid for breakfast we were informed breakfast was 7-10am as we came down to check out at 9:20am and enjoy breakfast we had paid for the reception informed us that it was finished at 9. Will not be rushing back.

Didn’t have breakfast so can’t comment on that, staff were all helpful and friendly, unfortunately the building itself is the downfall, the cleanness was really poor, from the lobby and stairs all around it wasn’t touched in 4 days I was there it just needs a major upgrade all over, then the bedroom was fine but dirty curtains hole in door blocked sink no plug for bath and the most awful mouldy kettle must have been sitting there for months. I did ask for a new one and they gave it no problem but shouldn’t have gotten to that stage and out of date milks too was in the room. Altho it says pet friendly they were hesitant to let all 3 our dogs stay because of the kgs they weighed as apparently that’s a new rule that’s come into place. But was a fine enough stay just not for a cuppa.

Sorry to say it but not a good experience

Had a fire in the hotel on the 4th floor after 9.40 pm. That floor was removed from use for obvious reasons. Fire was apparently caused by faulty equipment in the store room. Booked a standard double but as given a twin single. In that room there was the smallest TV I have ever seen. I think tablets now days might be bigger. The mattresses were new but could count every spring that was poking out. Breakfast was overcooked. I was later moved to a better room thanks to the staff. This hotel needs a big time makeover and change in how it is run.
Worlds smallest hotel room TV.

Wouldn’t stay again

The hotel was like an oven. It made sleep hard to achieve. The room was clean but dated. The breakfast was great, the breakfast staff were incredibly helpful. She was so kind to my son. Showing him how to use the toaster. Very patient. Wouldn’t stay again though.

You gets what you pay for. This is a budget hotel, which i chose for being dog-friendly and close to P&J arena. The staff were friendly and upgraded to a bigger room for the dog; this had one negative as it looked out onto a roof covered with rubbish, which i told the front-desk should be easily cleaned. No other issues.

I found the pillows quite hard. Sore neck noted would bring own pillow in future. Room was very warm. Even with fan on. Staff could not be more friendlier. I will be back in the near future . Food was excellent. Portion sizes very good. Originally booked through trivago and breakfast was 24 pounds but booking on site breakfast was 10 pounds. Not the hotels fault. It was quiet and other guests were very friendly.
