4/10 Poor

Spacious room(5) £137 to expensive No sockets they were hid behind bed Toilet door hadle hanging off Toilet not flushing properly No way a deluxe room Too noisey and banging on floor from above most of night. Wont be staying there again I thought we would be getting continental breakfast at that cost None existent staff Disappointed 100%

6/10 Okay

Room 10. The shower did not work and obviously hasn't as the cord to switch on is not just broken but has been removed. Otherwise the room was ok.
Daphne, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

Our reservation was for a room with a city view. We were put in a basement suit. Nor was housekeeping on a daily basis. Another guest we chatted with mentioned that certain other representations were not accurate. So, buyer beware.
Norbert, 1-night trip

2/10 Terrible

I booked and paid for a room with city view. I got a basement room with no view. The landlord failed to respond to my texts trying to sort the room. Landlord could not be bothered poor property poor room poor experience
Dean, 1-night trip

6/10 Okay

The check in procedure was bad. No person on hand to give me information or door key. The access code and room number were only provided a few minutes before check in time. This gave me a lot of concern before arriving. Also could not get in touch with anyone by phone.

6/10 Okay

Having paid and been receipted forca twin room with city view was disappointed to find wevhad been allocated small basement room. Im sure the intermittent macerator annoyed others as much as it did us. Very clean and tidy otherwise.
Alan, 1-night trip

4/10 Poor

When booking I selected a ‘Deluxe’ double room, City View. When I arrived I was allocated room 10 and the housekeeper said ‘10 is small and you have a dog’ but did not offer us a different room. The room we stayed in was small and had a small double bed in it. The listing for a deluxe double room states that there is a queen bed and that the room is 151 sq feet. The room we stayed in was no more than 4 steps from the door to the bed and there is a foot of room from the bottom of the bed to the dressing table. The city view we got was the view of the neighbouring property. Therefore, I would say this property is not as listed as even the images are misleading with the option I booked having a sofa in the middle of the room which would not have fit in the room I was in. On the plus side parking is very convenient and the room was clean
