Responsive reception, basic facilities.
I booked last minute as had flown in for a meeting which was delayed until the evening. All I needed was a bed, a bathroom and warmth, since external temperatures were heading towards zero. On reaching the room on the second floor via a narrow staircase, I had my doubts about the latter. The radiator was not working in the room, although the one on the landing outside was warm. I noticed a fan heater in the room. There was a single, fairly thin, duvet. Somewhat perturbed, I approached the gentleman at reception. He acknowledged that the radiator was not working, hence the provision of fan heater. I asked if another duvet could be provided and he said that one would be available when I returned. He was as good as his word. I slept well, comfortably and warmly. The other facilities were basic. Tea, coffee, kettle and biscuits were provided. On one wall socket, the top pin seemed to be damaged. Clean towels were provided. I left on good terms with reception.

The room was tiny, think cruise ship but smaller. The room was cold and had no thermostat. Black mold in a shower that was so small, no way could you bend down to soap up. The bathroom sink was beyond small. The bed was a single, double bed even though the website said it would have 2 beds. The staff was friendly

It was the day before election day in the US and I had no way of printing and filling out my ballot to upload it until the host told me she could print it, wait for me to fill it out, use the scan app on her iPhone, and email the documents to me to help me out. This is above and beyond in hospitality services.

Does for a bed for the night but nothing more!
Rooms are tiny… not enough room to even have your bags out of the way. Showers were temperamental, clearly affected by other hotel users. Bath towels were more like hand towels!.. although these were changed daily. Walls are paper thin so can literally hear people even just talking normally through the walls. Did us for just a bed for the nights but wouldn’t stay there again.

Room 4. The room walls were mouldy. Blind at doors was full of mould. The shower was mouldy. No window to open. Kettle too big for sink to allow filling. Refilled bottle of water left by hotel but was in doubt about using because of the mouldy walls and blind.

Terrible hotel!
Bad, moldy smell in the room, and sewer smell in the bathroom. The receptionist mysteriously disappeared, and so did not turn off the loud fire alarm that persisted for over 15 minutes. While waiting, other guests confirmed that their rooms smelled bad too. The polite and apologetic receptionist the next morning was the only bright spot in our stay. Would never recommend this hotel to anyone!
