- Craig (8/5): - Not alot No coffee no milk
- Bullock (10/5): Good better then last time - It was good tham made shore I could get in and I was ok No heir drier
- Usman (1/5): Terrible. Booked for 2 nights, didn’t stay for a single. It’s stinky and beds have bugs -
- dave (8/5): -
- Simon (2/5): -
- Jennifer (7/5): -
- Jonathan (5/5): -
- Nixon (3/5): Cockroaches and road noise in a central location - Good central location, close to amenities and transport links. Staff very helpful when arranging parking and checking in Cockroaches in sink, ill-fitting curtains letting in street lamp light, road noise, very noisy guests until 6am, foul smells coming into room at night, possible insect faeces in bed, room freezing at night and baking hot in the day
- Wayne (3/5): Very cheap but still over priced . Thought it was closed down when we turned up . Dirty , disgusting rooms actually tho - Nothing Everything
- Roderick (2/5): - nothing! My stay at Swandown Hotel was extremely disappointing.
The noise levels were unacceptable – people shouting and making noise until around midnight, making it very difficult to rest. The bed was also uncomfortable, so even when it got quiet, sleep wasn’t great.
There was also a noticeable bad smell in parts of the hotel, which made the whole place feel unpleasant and poorly maintained.
Yes, the price is relatively low, but that shouldn’t come at the expense of basic comfort and customer care.
Overall, not a place I would return to.
- Naylor (10/5): -
- mark (3/5): poor - To be honest I was not told that I had to reserve a parking place, so I had to park 10 minutes away in an expensive overnight car park. The room was cold and I couldn't turn the heating on. The TV signal was corrupt, I could only see random squares on most channels. There was limited bedding, not sure if it had been cleaned
- Ella (1/5): Bad - Staff was friendly upon arrival. Found a cockroach trap in the bathroom, shower leaked as the door didn’t shut properly and nearly ended up flooding the shower. Cockroach crawling up the bathroom door. Broken fire alarm hanging out the ceeling and no disrespect to the owners but the property absolutely stank and was not appealing… can understand why it’s so cheap to stay in all honesty… will not be staying again!
- Emily (5/5): I doubt I’ll go back. - Location perfect for the event I was attending. Tatty, room smelled of cigarette smoke, not v clean.
- Alazar (10/5): -
- DONG (8/5): Comfortable stay and great location - big family room with three beds, clean and modern bathroom, a small fridge and free parking, close to the park and high street ( It is wise to give a call to the host if you need to park your car at the back.) The room is a bit noisy.
- Allam (1/5): -
- David (5/5): Tired old building - Good location for old town, clean bathroom.
Power sockets by bed had usb a connectors.
There was a kettle (essential) and should you need it, basic coffee powder, tea bags. Somehow the shower and toilet room smelt of stale smoke. I think it was coming from outside up the extraction fan.. maybe the staff are unaware of this, but other more discerning travellers will take offense at this.
Silly little things that could be so easily sorted like providing a few hangers on the clothes rail. None in evidence. A bed lamp usually a standard..none here.
£40 a night is okay. I dont expect the luxury but it feels the bare minimum is done to keep this building in working order. the carpet is long overdue a clean.

- William (2/5): - Room was basic but fine. Host very nice Stay was ruined by unruly neighbouring guests who came home at 11:25 and made a violent and outrageous disturbance for the next 3 hours. Screaming, crashing, crying, shouting, bashing. Horrendous. The same people also parked us in and we could not even leave when we wanted to.
- Nicky (1/5): Not good - Cockroaches in side unit drawers. Cockroaches in bedside cabinet
Noisy aggressive guests
Genuine feelings of fear that I was going to be taken advantage of.
An inability to maintain a comfortable sleep due to pooh stains on the pillow... really was difficult to reach climax.
