We arrived at the hotel and said we where booked in and he looked and said no your not and asked for the booking reference. He told us we had been moved to another hotel down the road due to building work. He gave us the details and we found the room. The new room was fine but basic, clean and comfy. No coat hangers or towels and no one around to ask as the hotel was unmanned. Also no WiFi (if there was there was no-one around to ask for code). The stay was fine for a night.
Bed was extremley low which proved very difficult to get on and off it, especially as we are elderley and i have Parkinsons.
The TV was not set up to work, unable to watch it at all.
The shower fan is very noisy and only one door on wardrobe. and although there was space to hang garments, there were no hangers to do so
There is paint on the carpet & headboard, obviously didnt move or cover these whilst painting.
The room could benefit from a thorough upgrade as it is certainly not worth the £77 we paid for the night. Very dissapointed.
There was no one at reception when we left so was unable to speak with anyone
This was the worst room I have ever stayed in!!! Not sure if it doubled as a probation hostel but there was an ominous atmosphere to the whole place! Holes looked liked they’d been punched into walls, paint work was dirty, one curtain over window that didn’t even fit properly and carpets felt and looked dirty!! Worst part was the state of the wall behind the pillows!! It was black with grime where there was no headboard!! See photo!! I wish I’d read reviews first. My wife was so upset and worried that we left within 10 minutes of arriving, having just travelled 5 hours in the car! Unless you’ve been to prison, this will be the worst place to spend a night!! Avoid at all cost!!
If you like broken doors, stains on walls, stains on the bed, damaged bathroom plugs, paper thin walls, a questionable lock and a rude (possibly handicapped) receptionist who chooses to pretend the above doesnt exist, then this is the place for you
It was very basic, unclean, scruffy and way too expensive. I WON'T BE STAYING THERE AGAIN. There were dirty carpets, holes in walls and doors that had been poorly filled. The shower was dirty and unusable. Not happy one bit. Very disappointed

The window didn’t open in the room and didn’t shut prior so there was a breeze. Which meant you could hear the noise in the morning and the toss took ages to work

Poor overall
Staff were lovely. Room was old/ dated. Shower did not work properly, big hole in windows letting in large draft. Carpet filthy. Room clean other than carpet. Beds clean and comfy.

If you are looking for a budget friendly place to stay this is definitely a good option. the beds were very comfortable, bedding and towels exceptionally clean. The room had a TV, kettle & tea & coffee. It was a very basic room but it suited our needs fine. The guy we checked in with was super friendly and seemed a lovely guy. If you plan on using the room as simply a place to sleep while you enjoy the surroundings this is a great recommendation. But if you enjoy things a bit more up market with plenty of luxury and attention to detail then is definitely give this place a miss... overhaul I was reasonably happy with my stay and would stay here again in the future.

I paid £50 for 2 nights for a single bed. At that price I wasn't expecting 5☆ treatment. I paid budget and got budget. My problems were
*paper thin walls i had no sleep i could hear everything
*bathroom sink had no plug, shower was falling apart
*They allocated my room to someone else on the second night when i was still in it
Bed comfy in single room ideal solo travel yea coffee in room basic standard staff excellent have a problem sort soon that day the hotel is perfect close train station town centre
We didn’t stay here we checked in and it was filthy we are currently trying to get a refund from Expedia the staff couldn’t speak English we had no towels and the room hadn’t been cleaned if I could upload pictures here to show everyone I would please avoid this hotel
I guess you get what you pay for but some simple cleaning and mopping wouldn't go amiss, drink stains on the wooden stairs, dirty handprints on every door, out room wasn't hoovered, worst of all we were in a family room on the 3rd floor and the patio door didn't shut properly meaning it also didn't lock which could have led to a child opening the door and being on the balcony on the 3rd floor with 2 chairs for them to climb on and fall over the edge, not to mention it made the room insecure from the adjoining rooms on the same balcony, so when I say you get what you pay for don't expect anything other than a comfyish bed and very hot hotel room
