The room was cold, dirty, small and in need of total refurbishment. They had apparently started the refurb!!! The breakfast and drinks in the rooms were cheap unknown products and lacked flavour, sausages cooked then re heated isn't good. I think their cleaner was very short, as the tops of things were very dusty and dirty. We didn't bath as the bath wasn't clean.The velvet curtains in our bathroom were stained and when pulled, were down beside the toilet pan!!! We had blankets on our bed, which smelt musty.The hotel is not value for money. We had no sleep as there was a bus stop opposite the hotel and a pelican crossing. Police sirens throughout the night and noisy students out for halloween!!! On a sign in our bedroom, it also states, no washing allowed!!!!!

The staff are friendly but the room was small and needs updating. Wasn't the best value for money we found and will look elsewhere next time.

The rooms at this hotel were clean & well cared for. The staff treated everyone as if they were friends. The breakfast choices were large & everything was excellent. The owner greeted everyone at breakfast as if he had known them a long time. He went out of his way to make you feel comfortable. The stafff was very knowledgeable about the area & ready to help if needed. Overall, a stay at this hotel is very relaxing. We would definately go back to this hotel.

The review applies to July 2010. High season - everything else was fully booked. When we arrived, there was no sign of our booking, but a room materalized anyway when we paid our stay in full to get the suspicious expression off the manager's face. Then we were given a lecture on what not to do in the room, including cooking and laundry, as if that would be the normal behaviour for hotel guests ... We were treated like shifty blackguards until we decided to sign in with another title than Mr and Mrs, which changed the behaviour to creepily subservient.

The place was worn, difficult to keep clean, TV reception poor, breakfast sparse and unfresh, etc. The list could be longer. Two days in a row we had to ask for a second towel, as housekeeping had decided that only one person was living in the room. This was a place where we just slept. It was not a place to relax and 'stay' in.

In summary, this is not good value for your money. We travel a lot and this is the worst place ever. Keep away.
