Do not recommend

Very outdated, room was dusty, stuffy and stunk of cigarettes. Bed was so uncomfortable, didn’t sleep at all. Mattress so soft might as well be non existent. Just overall poor. Positives: very central, car park included.

Disappointed - Avoid

What a disappointment. If you’re expecting what you see in the photos advertised…don’t. Arrived and the first room we were allocated was grim. - The toilet didn’t flush - The toilet was dirty, the kind of dirty where it doesn’t look like it’s been cleaned properly for some time and simple deep clean would have done the job - Sink also covered in old grime, again easily sorted with a deep clean - Carpet that was snagged and dirty - Bed - one of its legs looked to be holding on for dear life - No loo roll - Cobwebs - Grubby old yellowing shower curtain - General stains and splashes on wall - No shower gel etc just one small bar or soap to share - Complimentary tray (tea, coffee, water etc) nothing like the photo. Asked for a change of room due to none flushing toilet and the customer service was terrible. General body language and the tone of the conversation made us feel very uncomfortable and like we were very much an inconvenience. Second room marginally better, but still no loo roll, stains on walls, poor quality mattress and dirty toilet again. We were meant to be staying two nights but only did one and booked ourself into another local hotel at our cost. We just didn’t feel comfortable, particularly safe or welcome. Says it has a restaurant, it doesn’t and the whole place was just tired and feels like it’s on its way out. When I used the toilet in the main reception, AGAIN no toilet roll.

Appalling

So shocked how bad this place is. Urine on the toilet seat. Ripped bed sheets. Extremely hot room despite all windows being open. Dirty table and bin in bathroom. Paper thin walls and very smelly.

We had a twin room, my bed was desperately uncomfortable with a sagging middle - it needs replacing. Fortunately, there was a 3rd bed in the room, so slept there.

We were given a top-floor, city view room during 30c weather. The room was crooked. The floor was uneven. The bed was slanted. The heat made the room sticky and unbearable. Opening the window made it smell of pigeon poop. The bathroom was mouldy with a disgusting shower curtain, a metal holder that my husband cut his head on, no temperature control on the very hot water, and tub sides that were painful to climb over. A complaint lead us to another room on the garden/parking side that was much better. The staff who assigned us the horrible room was unfriendly almost to the point of rudeness. The staff who reassigned us the next morning was very friendly and helpful. We do not recommend a city view room. Fair value for close to high street but chose a garden room in the newer wing.
