Laurie, Lake Forest Park

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The bedroom and bathroom were nice, but the bed needs a new mattress: the springs were prominent & were painful. An additional blanket available in the cupboard would be nice because the room took a while to warm up. When I first entered the building there’s a strong mildew smell.

This property is in such a fabulous location! Easy connections to the rest of the city and it's so close to the bus, train and ferry hubs. Within minutes of walking off the ferry from the Isle of Wight, I was at the property door. The staff are so friendly, always happy to help. I'm definitely going to recommend them to my friends and I'll happily book in here again

1. Price - Paid about £82 per night (excluding breakfast cost for comparison) which did not match the advertised avilable price of £63 (7/7/2024). 2. Train - No mention of the train screetching across the street that starts around 5am and thanksfully stops around middnight. No warning was given in the description. I know the train cant be moved but it should impact the price point! Your price point being too high! 3. Daily housekeeping - Not up to standard, day 1 as expected, day 2 no housekeeping no new towels, day 3 bed made roughly no new toilet paper or towels did replenish tea/coffee but then left cups that were unclean. 4. The room - In general the whole room was not clean and akward, the TV was tucked into the corner out of view of one side of the bed. One window seat for clearly a double bed room with a stool you could not comfortably sit together. The room we had never featured in the advertising photos. I would not recomend at this price point for a couple.

Cheep and cheerful
Nothing special, but for the price you cant complain. Communal areas need updating. Fantastic location for the docks , shopping and train station. Would return if the price stayed low.
