Excellent

There were numerous faults in the room. I was so disappointed that I emailed my concerns as soon as I checked in and attached 12 photos which evidenced the poor standard of the room
Clean, comfortable room, with enough food for a good breakfast. A little out of the centre of Lincoln, maybe 1 mile, which if your happy with then this property offers excellent value for money.

Bathroom door fall to my back, bathroom accessories not fixed properly, shower tap works just about. Room forniture (draws) broken guides. Not safe to stay in this room. The room is near the main entrance, you ear the main door slam every time….

The Room, itself, was clean and comfortable and the stuff, left for breakfast, was appreciated plus plenty of tea, sugar and milk.
Tennyson is also well located.
My only issue was getting into the property itself; the door seemed to stick.

The room was in good condition, however the main light didn’t work, only the light in the hallway turned on and then I had to turn the small bedside lamps on as the main ceiling light didn’t work.
All other aspects were great, assigned room parking, clean bathroom, I could easily open the windows.
My husband and I stayed here for a night for our anniversary. Couldn’t have picked anywhere better. It was perfect. We could walk into the city for a meal and then drinks on the brayford after and a leisurely walk back. Would highly recommend
