The property is a beautiful old building which is impressive from the outside. However it is a little tired and worn and would benefit from a lick of paint and some crockery and cutlery that matches.

The hotel history, the building and the street it stands in are beautiful. Parking is a limited and will hold around 6 or 7 cars. The rooms are clean and tidy, tea and coffee making range of supplies and quantities are second to none. The maid service was good. Breakfast was excellent and the bar in the evening offered good prices but limited range. The desk isn't really staffed and there is no in room guidance for services fire escapes etc. The hotel is looking tired but I believe is value for money and I would use it again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Disgusting hotel. Took 20 minutes for the mm to answer the door, then got grunted at by a woman who was furious that she had guests to deal with. Really rude! Got to the bedroom and booked another hotel immediately. Within 5 minutes we had left the building due to the dirt in the bedroom, floaters in the toilet and a very shabby room. Massive brown stain on the mattress and doors were very thin. Absolutely vile place. Couldn’t breathe properly due to the dirt and dust. No extra cleaning due to covid obviously as the amount of dust proves it’s not been cleaned properly for years. Left the hotel itching and coughing. Wiped our feet on way out to protect the environment.

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
Hotel from the outside looks really nice. Room looks nice, at first, but once you start looking better, you start noticing the dust, sticky sofa and the daft smell. TV wasnt plugged in, and only receives 2 news channels and radio. Bathroom fan doesnt do anyhthing cause it completely clutted. They have private parking, which is really nice. Unfortunately there is a pothole of about 40 cm on the road to it. I suspect the hotel used to be very fancy and neat, but it has declined since a couple of years. If they would clean the place up and do some simple maintenance it would change a lot.

Good hotel for the price but the shower room is so small it was almost impossible to fit in and shower (the smallest sink ever). No mirror in the room.The bathroom had a very weird light sensor that basically made the light and the vent switch on and off at random (I had to have a shower in semi-darkness in the morning after it was on for the whole night!!). My party had two rooms and both had the same lights issue. The breakfast was alright.

An old refurbished property.This was good value for money. Breakfast was excellent for a small hotel .Evening meals were also good with small Cosy dining room . Super Geordie friendliness. Convenient for me as I was working close by. Beds were a bit too soft for me , but that was really my only dislike.
