The Ibis Newcastle is just grubby. From the entrance to the elevator to the corridors and the room I was in. The bed was comfy, but that is all I can say that is redeeming. Housekeeping needs to pick up their game. Property maintenance should be looked at overall.

Disliked: Amenities
My recent stay at the Ibis Newcastle was quite underwhelming. Upon arrival, we experienced a several-minute wait to check in as there was only one worker attending to three people in front of us. When we finally got to our room, we were disappointed to find a noticeable white stain on the carpet, which gave an immediate impression of uncleanliness. Additionally, the room was under-equipped, there were only two pillow on the bed and one spare in the cupboard, all were so thin that they barely provided any comfort. Puzzling why there was only one spare pillow for a double occupancy room. Overall, while the basic amenities were present, the cleanliness and comfort left much to be desired. I would rate my stay as average, and I hope that improvements can be made in these areas for future guest.

Nothing flash, nothing horrible. Basic accommodation, but good for a few nights if just need somewhere to sleep and get breakfast. Parking is outside, which is good if you have vehicle that is higher than normal and doesn't easily fit in multi-story or underground carparks. Staff were friendly.

Fridge did not work, no offer to replace fridge or move my room. Rather inconvenient. Bathroom was super weird, was like a separate pod put into a room and reminded me of a cruise ship!
