Dirty carpets, poor cleanliness generally. Pathetic breakfast. Only one bedside lamp for two single beds. Noisy plumbing. Had to use shower to fill the kettle. When trying to contact hotel seemed to go to a call centre abroad. Parking available = 3 spaces for many rooms, ie no parking.
Unstaffed desk for half the day was disappointing, stayed in room 337 (attic room) and found a tube sock covering an unknown fixture (smoke detector maybe?) right when i opened the door. Beyond that, there was no way to control the heat so I froze my first night there, when the temps were 3 degrees AND the main room windows would not latch closed completely. Booked a double bed, and it was literally two small matresses pushed together - which I found out when I woke up stuck in the crack between the two. Overall the property was dated, the floors were stained, and the experience was barely okay. The snack selection, however, was nice- and the unstaffed desk meant they stayed out for taking beyond posted breakfast times (which I liked).
Felt like a hostel not a hotel. "Breakfast" was a room with a table of packaged snacks and boilers to make tea and coffee in plastic cups. Customer service was poor, another guest was told they no longer had a room available despite booking and offered no help to ammend. Room was very small and required serious updates and new carpets. Would not recommend.
No one at reception desk from 8 am to 1500. Was a difficult stay, was locked out of room after breakfast and emergency number no one answered. Other number was answered but call center OYO staff were completely unhelpful. Asked for a booking number that I was never given since I’d book from hotels .com instead of direct. Impact was bad for work as it meant I had to be later in given medications and bag was locked in room with card and it was not easy to find help. I would not like to stay there again, the receptionist staff and cleaning staff who eventually resolved the issue were very good and accommodating but the help out of manned hours is a serious risk. The call center function was a waste of 30 mins of waiting and being told they don’t want to do anything to help because of booking id. Clearly this hotel has not taken the time to understand gaps in its operating model which has serious risks and implications if people are locked out of their rooms and there is no clear way to resolve this unless they walk through the entire hotel and find the single cleaner tending to duty. The hotel itself was dated, worn but the bed was comfortable.
Very limited parking which is not clear on Expedia website, room very tired - not as shown on webiste, carpet dirty, radiator didn't work, shower door broken,
I have never come across a hotel this dirty and unkept. So much so that went out to buy anti bac wipes to wipe eeeeverything down out of disgust. There was black mold on the window sills and outer walls, the carpet was stained throughout and clearly unhoovered, the heating was never on despite being November meaning I slept in my dressing gown to keep warm in the night and in the morning there was only tepid water. Thanfully the towels and linen seemed to be ok.
The location is great. Bit noisy, but I don’t mind that if staying in a city. Person working at reception was nice. But did overhear talking about annoying clients.
I wasn’t expecting luxury for the price. But the place is a hostel and not a hotel. Room had a whole above the bed, bathroom smelled of bleach but was not clean and carpet was scary.
Also! Beware as some single rooms have shared bathroom.
Ended up last minute booking somewhere else.

I though the property was very tired, the towel rail was falling of in the bathroom and the toilet made a continuous noise after it flushed. The carpets were very dirty. It just needs to be redecorated and shown some care.

The Hotel Inspector Wouldn't be Impressed
I'm not expecting 'posh' but for the price we paid, in Clifton, I expect a better quality room.
The carpet was minging, there weren't any headboards and the the decor was basically dull and uninspiring. Although the room was clean, it could do with a lick of paint and a few extras to make the room feel more welcoming. Somewhere to hang wet coats? A bedside lamp? Some nice photos of Bristol or local art?
The receptionist was really friendly and helpful.
The beds were comfortable.

Good location and reasonably priced rooms. Only down side was that we opted for early check in but when we arrived at 1pm we found out the reception was not manned until 3pm, which messed up our plans a bit.
I was put into a room that was damp and smelly, due to the damp. There was no mattresses protector and there were blood stains on the mattress. Have taken photos and shown them to the desk staff I was given a much better room. The carpets were dirts and there were cobwebs on the ceiling light.
This is a pleasant place to stay,& convenienly near the centre of Bristol. Room fine, help your-self breakfast.

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was great to get one of the limited parking spaces, that made life very easy.
There were no staff at hand for the majority of our visit - felt like a back packers hostel.
The carpets were filthy, no other way to describe them. But it was a cheap and cheerful one-night stay and we slept OK.
Breakfast was ‘simple’, but plentiful. Some of the fruit had seen better days, the fruit flies were an added extra, we could have done without!
All in all, for what we paid it was reasonable.
A good clean and better staffing would have made it much more pleasant. The staff we did meet on returning late at night were friendly and helpful.
