Problem checking in needs attention. No contact or keycode sent. Had to telephone and luckily the woman who answered sorted the issue. It did mean we were later checking in though. It was suggested that the problems were the fault if Hotels.

Fantastic stay. Affordable, relatively central without being too loud. A little noisy with it being on the main road but it wasn’t too distracting, for the price this was a fantastic stay. We stayed 2 nights and will definitely be returning, thank you!

The room I was put in was in desperate need of a refurb and was way below the standards. Ripped headboard, mould on windows, rusty radiator and bathtub, toilet that blocked, door handle that was broken. As I only stayed one night, I didn’t bother to complain.
