Good location but a little disappointing

The lobby area was nice and the staff were great but we were really disappointed with the room we had booked. It didn't reflect what we saw on the pictures and looked quite dated and didn't "feel" clean (just for clarity there weren't any signs of dirt or rubbish). We immediately got changed and went out for food and had decided that we needed to change room. Luckily we expressed our concerns and were able to get an upgrade which was much better. I can't remember what the room was called but it's the one with the kitchen. We paid for breakfast but that was quite disappointing and so we left and went to a coffee shop instead. The bar/eating area did give off sports bar vibes as there were many screens and would probably be great for when sporting events are being televised. Location wise the hotel is in a decent area as everything we wanted was in walking distance but we just expected a little more from the hotel itself. Again, I would just like to say that I was really happy with the staff and their service.

This hotel HAS NO ON SITE PARKING despite what is stated in the Expedia listing!! Your only option is to park off site and pay £17/day. This is a discount from the £22/day that the garage charges, if you get your parking ticket validated at the hotel prior to leaving, and is a 4 minute walk to the hotel. Other than that, the hotel is nice within a short walking distance to many shops, restaurants/pubs and of course, St. James Park, where Newcastle UFC play.

Good location with discount parking nearby

Good location, parking nearby, discount for the parking. Kitchen area spacious, bedroom area not so good with the sofa bed out. The bathroom was nice but the bathroom door was noisy to close and once closed it swung for a few seconds clanking. It was also very hot.

noisy and no air con.

the bedrooms have no aircon which i had failed to check considering this hotel isn’t a old property. My room was like a green house, unable to get ready for a night out as the heat was so un bearable, we had to do our make up in the corridor as was slightly cooler. The rooms were airless, provided with a shop bought small fan which just circulated hot air round the room. The room is above the extraction fans which you can hear all night. i have stayed in this hotel b4 and have to say after the 2nd visit i shouldn’t have returned.
