Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Staff were friendly and welcoming. The room was spotless and the bed was comfy.
The room and bed was very comfortable. The tea/coffee making facilities were not good. And the original staff member I spoke to was quite rude and unhelpful.
A real disaster I’m afraid to say. First room the bed had a terrible, very old mattress. The second room I was switched into had an even bigger problem… BED BUGS! I got bitten during the night which was painful and a really unpleasant experience. I got switched into yet another room. So although the location is good, I would serious think twice about booking this hotel. What a shame
Clean, straightforward stay. Helpful receptionist. Excellent restaurant on site.

Disliked: Cleanliness
The room was cold (I didn’t realise you had to turn the heating on). There was very heavy rain and the noise on a flat roof outside our window was unbearable. We changed rooms at midnight. The following night a Turkish wedding with drums until midnight. Shower great. Beds comfortable. Towels have seen better days. Receptionist very helpful

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room seemed fine at a glance but when we getting settled in we noticed quite a few things that suggest it was not cleaned properly and/or lacks maintenance. The toilet was left "dirty" if you get my drift. The mini fridge cabinet had been moved and unplugged and had milk runs down the side of it. One of the chairs had discarded tea and sugar packets left on it in pain view. One of the towels provided had a big hole in it. They clearly have a problem with damp as the you can see the patches of discoloration and cracks on the ceiling, as well as glossy patches where they've just painted over it previously. The windows have secondary double glazing inside as it's an old building with sash windows but the double glazing was missing a pane and otherwise looked like it was from the 90s. You could also see the blackening on the window frames where the condensation is likely rotting the frames. We found the bed to be very firm. It felt like an old standard spring mattress not anything modern with pocket springs and a foam topper etc. The sheets also seemed like they were quite old and had seen better days.
Really friendly and professional welcome and the room was spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed, great shower and complimentary proper coffee in the room. Central location with access within 200m to local restaurants made this place a great find.
Great stay, on arrival room was upgraded as the room we were assigned was not ready for us. The room was very spacious and tidy. Fab location for what we needed for our stay.
