"Good location but toilet was not cleaned at all and hairs on the bed sheets."

4.0

Good location

Not clean, toilet was disgusting on arrival and the bed had black hairs over the sheets. The mattress was thin with only a sheet covering it and no mattress protector. Really disappointing, trying to contact for compensation but no answer!

Nice staff. Good location

One of the window doesn't lock. Hence unsafe. The rug is dirty. Needs deep clean.

"Good value, good fun and great bar and staff"

7.0

Lovely bar good drink selection and food was good - we had some chicken wings- the hotel area maybe needs a refurb as a bit tired looking but was clean and comfortable

Hotel rooms need some loving but still cosy and clean
