Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Absolutely disgusting, floor was filthy and full of stains. Beds were full of stains & hairs so bed sheets/covers were not changed. Toilets didn’t work. Broken glass around the room and worst part was the bed were full of bed bug. They told me they had no more room so I had to go sleep in the car with my 2 kids because I wasn’t letting my kids sleep in that room.

Poor service delivery, they changed my booking to a basement room without my consent only to find out upon arrival and the hygiene leaves a lot to be desired as sewage was flowing all over the floors, maintenance issues so they said

Cheap place to stay.
Not the nicest of hotels I'm afraid. Staff were friendly and helpful, but the room was not clean and very tired looking. Very little in the way of fixtures and fittings, not even a tv in the room. Won't be going back.

The hotel is not comfy.. the walls are not well maintained, the bathroom shower is broken and there was no apology after reporting it upon arrival. £50 damages fee was collected but it was returned after checking out. I feel it’s too much for a room that is not standard. The room door and lock are ancient and super weak, and it compromises security.
