Not What I Expected
Our stay was just ok but not what I expected. Entrance through a very busy pub/bar, cobwebs in the room and noise from the bar at night.

Comfortable but work in progress.
I’d give this 3* based on price we paid, room was warm and comfortable but the hotel is clearly being renovated and the room needs a bit of tlc. Fine for a night and has potential for future.

Filthy and loud
You sleep above a dingey, LOUD pup - prepare for no sleep. We kinda knew what we were in for but needed a keep stay and for that it done the job but an awful place. It's filthy and so dated, it was a laugh or cry situation and we just had to laugh, get out head down and leave as soon as possible.

Room was clean and tidy. Entrance via locked door was damp smelling which would put you off but once inside room was excellent for price. One problem was we are 69 and there was so many stairs to room. Real friendly place but next time ld ask for a lower floor room. Our fault for not requesting.

It was shocking for £70.00 a night. My room was disgraceful and shabby. The hotel/pub was full of drunk people wandering around the corridors shouting. Loud inside and out. Karaoke could be heard until gone 1.00am. A rough place and rough experience all round.

As with previous reviews the place needs a total refit. When I booked I had read the reviews and new what to expect . The room was cheap and we got what we paid for . The bar is good with nice staff. Black linen is a no no !
