"I didn’t stay , I wouldn’t stay somewhere so dirty and unkept, I left shortly after seeing room"

1.0

Nothing it was uninviting , and dirty

The cleanliness was appalling, it was mouldy and dirty. The carpets were stained , the curtains were mouldy , the shower and sinks were dirty and mouldy , even the lampshades were stained , and there was an awful smell , another thing is there was no extractor fan in the enclosed bathroom it had been taken out and replaced with a cover which is illegal in this country , everything about the hotel was dated dirty run down and no staff!!!!

Good location for us and large room.

Dated decor. Bathroom fan did not work. Outside our ground floor window was an exit which was covered in bird droppings from a nest above . Plus bird mess from nest on window.

"Very disappointing"

1.0

When we came down for breakfast the staff said that they had had more guests than they thought and that they had run out of food. We were down half an hour before breakfast closed.We had virtually no breakfast. Disgraceful. Staff were perfectly pleasant but did not apologise. I told the girl on reception but did not go further because it was not her fault.

"Very uncomfortable beds and cold breakfast"

4.0

Reception staff very friendly

I booked this hotel for my 94 year old mum, i assumed this would be a nice country hotel for her to stay at as she travelled from London rather than a chain of hotels, the room was a good size with a nice bathroom, bath not shower which she couldnt get into, they did put her on the ground floor which we asked for, the bed was so uncomfortable and when she mentioned this to the staff they just said that they have had lots of complaints and could only put a duvet underneath. she paid £13 a night for breakfast which was cold, obviously been sitting out for some time, very disappointed in this hotel, i will never recommend to anyone or book again.

"It was pleasant . Good location for the Bolney estate"

6.0

We only had breakfast on the last day good value for money, but as a tour had just left it took a while to replenish the buffet . The one member of staff in the restaurant was very pleasant & helpful

The bathroom looked tired & our friends in room 125 had an issue with the hot water on both days we stayed .
