Great central location close to shops and train station.

Room felt like a ship cabin. Dark and cramped but functional for a short stay

Very close to train station. Clean and safe. Good breakfast.

"Well designed Hotel near the railway station"

8.0

Near to the station for easy access into London on the Elizabeth’s line. The television worked well and the shower the toilet flush and the cold water supply. There was also an opening window with a security cable which allowed fresh air into the room. There was a chair and a desk suitable to work on and a comfortable bed and a wardrobe. The design of the room was quite innovative.

The Ruff nature of the St outside with Ruff sleepers literally next door at the Yorkshire building Society hide degree of litter on the streets in the early morning after the night before, but I accept this is not within the hotels remit.

"Good but it could have been better."

8.0

Its proximity to the town and Reading station.

The breakfast could have been warmer, the plates are always cold and the orange and apple juice (I think it was apple juice it was so watery) wasn’t very nice.
