STAY AWAY!

This IS NOT a 3 star hotel. I’m sorry, but this should not be offered to paying customers. This is used for housing people off the streets and in know way should be charged at anything over £50 a night let alone the £130 for each room we paid. We checked out the minute we went to outlet room.

So originally had different hotel book and paid for with expidea but the over booked hotel with several guests and altough they were very helpful in organising different accommodation we ended up in a very low grade hotel even though we had paid for better accommodation, we paid €123 for one night for original accommodation what we got as a replacement i think would have only be worth €50 and even at ,€50 i wouldn't booked this hotel , i would be very cautious booking with expidia again

Avoid like the plague!

I reluctantly write this, as I'm not a fan of writing bad reviews, but I wouldn't want others having a similar experience. Other than location and the staff this hotel doesn't have much else going for it and I'd strongly advise to avoid like the plague. The stench of illicit substances greeted us as soon as we pulled up outside in the car, this continued through to the lobby, lift and room. The hotel seemed to be being used as some sort of meeting place for the local junkies and alcoholics with a steady stream of these "guests" moving through the hotel corridors, which made myself and my wife feel really unsafe! The bed had I actually slept on it wouldve been like sleeping on a park bench, although the upside of the park bench being safer. The final nail in the coffin was the room was riddled with damp. All in all I spent about an hour in this room, we checked out and booked another room in the Holiday Inn up the road. Best decision I made! In summary nice staff, good location (for Connexin) , terrible room and awful clients

Ok Nothing special. Staff looked disinterested and not very knowledgeable on local area. Probably better places to stay locally and for less money. No life in the place wifh a bar that was closed.
