The staff were as friendly and as helpful as they could be …. However the room itself was tired and worn , the bedroom window would only open about 2 inches and of what we could see through the window itself and through the 2 inch gap was just roof , the bathroom window was painted shut and could not be opened , the one bed base was broken and rocky , dirty marks all over walls , dirty , spillage marks all over carpets ( made your socks dirty when walking without shoes on ), on entry the bin had blonde hair ( pulled from floor or hairbrush ) in it , the kettle was broken so it would boil and boil without switching off , there was worn out duck tape all over the step up to the bathroom, around the handle , down the door of bathroom was filthy dirty , missing paint patches everywhere , skirting boards mouldy/ dirty round by shower cubicle , holes in wall where a previous loo roll holder once was , we could hear the other rooms , the room was way to warm , due to this we spent hardly anytime in the room , and could not sleep , this was not the room advertised in pictures when we booked . This could be a beautiful hotel inside if maintained well , it’s also in an ideal location .

We have stayed at this hotel several times in the past but since its been taken over its not the same. We had dinner on the second day and it wasnt worth the money. We both had vegetable curry which was ment to come with nan bread but didnt. I asked the girl serving and she said they didnt have any. I then went to make a cup of tea as the facilities was out i then asked for some milk and the same girl told me there isnt any as the machine was getting removed! So i was left with a black tea that i couldnt drink! We then had apple pie with warm custard and a lemon pie with raspberry coulis. The custard was stone cold and no raspberry coulis. Left very disappointed.the bathroom window in our room didnt stay open and rhe bathroom door didnt shut properly. Theres not free hot chocolates in the rooms any more and the bed sheets were dirty! Dont think we will come back again

Needs a lot of TLC, staff were ok. Rooms very basic and need updating. Also kept up all night due to a domestic in the corridors(appreciate this isn’t hotels fault) but given it went on for couple of hours I would of thought security would of got involved

It wasn't very clean wasn't what we booked definitely not worth £220 for 2 nights stay there was no bar it's advertising it has one I'm glad we didn't have to pay for breakfast as not every much section water for the shower was very hot or freezing cold and not very helpful when asked about it. It's just a check in take your money and get on with it very unhappy would never return or recommend it to anyone.

Okay but…
The staff were lovely upon arrival. Room was okay for price could use some touches of paint as looks very old and had a musk smell to it. But we did not sleep at all and rushed out in the morning due to loud noises from other rooms at night our dog just couldn’t settle as we could hear everything around us. Lots of shouting in the street right outside the hotel.

Don’t waste your time
Nothing good to say about this hotel. The fire alarm went off for 3 hours in the middle of the night. The rooms were tired and dusty and you can hear the floorboards creaking from the hallway and rooms above and around you. Avoid.

Rooms were clean , but need updating also bathroom needed a complete refurbishment. The room was big enough but would be nice with a small fridge in it. We were staying only for 1 night so it was ok . If longer i think it would bother me more .

Good location. Rooms on the website look modern and comfortable. We were not given one of those rooms. Bed is so squeaky we had to put the mattress on the floor in order to sleep. Was cheap but if you want to sleep do not stay here.
