Not enough space
The hotel was neat,but the bathrooms are too tiny, tight and small and not comfortable at all.
It was very difficult to have a clean bath.

Friendly staff and close to the city for the price. Shower didn't work properly and parking is just on the neighbouring streets.

This stay was very poor and uncomfortable.
I had a unexpected fee for parking which wasn’t mentioned on the booking and the room was uncomfortable and in disrepair

Would not recommend.

It was a cheap dive with aged room which was expected for the price. But there's this flash lobby with leather lounges and a pool table. It was so out of place compared to the value priced rooms. Actually would have been a pretty fancy place in it's day but it's dated and basic in a cheap end of town. Definitely met expectations though if you're after affordable stay with the basics.

Early check and no charge.
Small double room which is good enough for a night with ensuite. Good electric shower.
Road facing with no curtains just blinds.
One window had no handle to close it properly. Looked like the radiator was only on one bracket and had alot of dust all along the top.
Tea making facilities were there with an old lcd tv on the wall.
Clean bed with a couple of pillows.
The car park is charged at £5 but the cost is not mentioned on the advert just that charges apply.

The owners do not deserve your business, this is NOT a hotel it is a hovel of a place which is very rundown and lacks any level of customer service.
Please avoid at all costs.
Dirty and unmaintained rooms, no amenities such as a bar or restaurant.
Expedia should consider de listing this property.

The toilet was situated in between the shower and wall with very little room to sit properly. Also the taps on the sink moved when i opened them and didnt easily close. They needed maintenance.

The property was not maintained windows didn’t shut properly blinds held down with nails. Bathroom door couldn’t be closed properly as no handle on inside lift didn’t work heating was on all night which made it hard to sleep. And because windows were badly fitting road noise was bad not recommended
