Disgusting hotel

The hotel was disgusting, there was dirt everywhere, a broken window and also stains on the white bedsheets. The hotel had promised a refund as myself and my partner went to stay in a different hotel. However no refund was provided. This was a terrible hotel and the cleanliness was horrendous.

The room had a damp dirty smell. The bathroom was tired and had floors coming away from walls. The plug sockets were limited and dangerously placed directly behind the kettle station. Paint work and radiators were old, damaged and rusty. The beds were dirty and hard. The room was very hot could only open a small window for fresh air. The hotel was run down and very unkempt.

Low expectations: met

The reviews were clear, so we didn't expect much, and this was just a 1 night stopover. No receptionist when we arrived, phone through to the pub took a while to answer. Room condition was poor, outdated, tired, with holes in the plaster where the door handle and hot, and a half-hearted attempt at some repainting, which didn't come close to matching. Lots of dips in the floor; headboard creaked loudly when leant against; mattress soft and lumpy. Surprisingly, though, we slept quite well. Staff (mainly in the pub) were generally friendly and helpful, and breakfast was fine.

Ok for what it is

Staff were friendly and great in the restaurant area. However the hotel itself is very tired and is in great need of rennovation. Was ok for just a night, but wouldn't stay longer

Very dated and ruff around the edges, beds etc were very clean and comfortable but bathroom and ceilings etc were black and holes in the room door. Was on the ground floor and had to put earphones in to drown out walking about from above. On the plus side it was only 15mins from Alton Towers and the restaurant food was good and in much better conditon than the hotel area. The staff were all very friendly. I just had a 1 night stay with my 10 year old and would probably try elsewhere next time unfortunately.

The place is so outdated at least 20 years outdated there is no USB port anywhere there are not many plugs in the apartments and the building seems rundown bits of paper bits of bottle lids dust. I would never recommend this place to anyone. The only good thing you had going for it was the pub next door Which is built on the same property. The food was four out of 5. That’s the only thing it had going for it at this place would never return.

Adequate accomodation

I was impressed with the price. On our first night the bathroom light failed. It was fixed very quickly whilst we were out and about. Fixtures and fittings and furniture could do with improvement. A good general update is needed as there was mold in the windows, stains on the settee. The bath seal needs replacing and the floor covering in the bathroom was not sealed down and was a bit bouncy so suspect water had got underneath at some point. The wooden furniture would benefit from an upgrade. The duvet cover was extensively torn, I would think laundry could easily repair. Laundry otherwise was very clean. The structure of the rooms is in need of soundproofing as sleeping wasn't easy if like us you had noisy and heavy footed neighbours.

The place is so convenient and I would stay again but I will say the downstairs had a constant smell of bins and mouldy fruit. My little son just had to constantly hold his nose. Not sure what’s going on. The staff are friendly but the business model isn’t for them to be on hand. Value for money though if you just want somewhere to sleep and well located for Alton towers with easy parking, then it ticks the box. Bed is comfortable also

Sufficiently okay, but could benefit from some imp

Accommodation was generally acceptable. Everything worked okay and beds sufficiently comfortable. The room decoration though could do with being freshened up (also dirty/moldy net curtains). The staff were helpful but reception is frequently not manned - there is a phone there, but not always quick to respond.

Checked in and paid but left within an hour. The building looked ‘tired’ and quite run down outside and reception area wasn’t great. Once we got to our room, neither my partner nor I wanted to stay. The room was awful. Dirty net curtains with mould on the bottoms and broken and coming off from the wire holding it up. All furniture very dated and in poor condition. TV looked well used and dated. Carpets didn’t look too clean and the bathroom was tiny. Old fittings and again, mould on the shower curtain. No drawers to store clothes or belongings in and to be honest, the photos on the website looked to be taken some while ago compared to what you actually see on arrival. Generally grubby and run down and we just couldn’t feel comfortable enough to stay. £137 for 2 nights paid but we left within an hour.
