Disappointed
I wasn't expecting much for 70 pounds a night but I was still disappointed! Terrible rooms, dated and poorly maintained. Bathroom was awful and the rooms had paper thin walls somwas impossible to get a good night's sleep due to noise from next doors bathroom. I will not be coming back ever.

Pleasant weekend getaway base
Bell's provided a good base for a pleasant weekend getaway to The Forest of Dean. The room was clean and comfortable - but down to earth; it's probably not the place for those looking for international chain uniformity or city swank, but for our purposes it was fine.

Decent and affordable. Unfortunately very noisy, thin walls so I woke up constantly with the corridor doors opening and closing, people moving about, talking etc, so ended waking very early to the morning commotion.

Okay but not value for money
Bed was very comfy however the cleanliness of the ensure let the tern of the room down, mould in the shower mat, broken toilet seat, rusty chain in the door and a flush that didn’t work properly. Food was good and reasonably priced - biggest issue however was the noise. We were in room 1 which means everyone walked past us, right on the very squeaky floor boards outside our door. The walls are thin as well so you could hear everything being said.
