Good for short stay
Great location to Ice Sheffield, clean and the staffs are friendly.
Although the rooms are quite small, they have everything you need. The breakfast is goid and the staff could not have been better. They were extremely helpful and very friendly.

Basic but perfect for catching a show at the utility areana, good transport to city center and meadowhall is walkable as well
Our only complaint is that we booked a double room and paid extra for a third person. On arrival at the hotel we were asked to pay extra again for the third person. We had our booking, confirming the room was for three people, but reception wouldn't accept it. It just felt unfair.
Most basic budget hotel I have ever stayed in. Toilet in a cupboard shower and sink in bedroom. Photos very misleading.
Breakfast was very poor. Curled up cheese, one choice of pastry, tinned fruit.
However location for arena was excellent and good restaurants across the road.

You get what you pay for, was a comfortable stay at short notice and very very reasonably priced. No kettle, no iron. Lighting was good in the room, bed reasonably comfortable, 2 towels provided for my over night stay, television to pass the time and great central location. Yes there was a £8 charge for parking, how ever over all price was much cheaper than some of the other options. I would stay again. Just don’t expect luxury for the price.
friendly staff, clean room, the only problem we had was the lift wasn't working so it was a struggle with the stairs, but that's not the staffs fault.
Very good stay

You do get what you pay for, however toilet claustrophobic, shower temp changed a lot which was awful. Room exceedingly small and beds think and uncomfortable
I felt the room was quite small with a small shower cubicle and a very small separate toilet!
Bed was uncomfortable.
A plastic stool (no back rest) was provided.

D12 trials at the Sheffield arena
Really was basic ..had a disabled access room that was far from cosy ..I’ve stayed in a lot more hotels that offer so much more for the £88 we were charged. Ideal for the arena though and £8 for a days parking
Good for a budget hotel though I have stayed in more modern and spacious budget hotels. Room is small not much space to move around bed was almost touching both walls. Hotel itself was tired and there was some damp and mould around the windows it is however in a great location for Sheffield EIS, arena and ice rink. Good for a night or two stay if you need to be in the area
