“1960s-style decor and not a place to stay if you want to sleep”
Staff were friendly and welcoming. Where do I start? The hotel was last renovated quite clearly in the 1960s, with anaglypta covering the walls. I know, when reading this, you'll think, "Why didn't you check out the photos and reviews first?" and it is a mistake I'll never make again. This has to be the worst hotel experience I've ever had in 18 years of travelling for work. I paid £156 for a room so assumed it would be good. - The shower doesn't have a thermostat. - You have to climb into a bath to shower - Everything is severely outdated. - There was dust underneath the towel rail on the skirting board. - The environment is not ideal. - The walls are paper-thin. - I was woken in the evening by a group of men returning to their rooms. In the next room, the guest then put their TV on very loud and fell asleep. I had to call reception, who came and knocked on the door. They also told me they would ring the room. The TV finally went off at 4 am. I cannot believe the experience that I've had. - I then went down to breakfast to experience wipe-clean tablecloths that made me feel ill, and a seat allocated at a table with my room number clearly displayed. Had I been staying a second night (which wouldn't have happened if I'd booked two nights, I would have left). My room number was displayed to all guests, even though I was a solo female traveller! How security-conscious. - I only ordered toast for breakfast, as I didn't feel like eating, as the soup I'd had for lunch the day before wasn't great. It was bland and tasteless, so I ordered toast. The toast was toasted on only one side, and the bread was about 2 mm thick. - I wasn't offered any compensation, refund, or anything for the terrible stay that I had
