Room was clean. Location centre of town. However, no signage of hotel (we drove past it twice and needed to ring hotel for directions). Poor housekeeping- only one towel, one pillow and no cups. Receptionist not helpful.

Do NOT stay here! This isn’t a hotel. There was no exterior sign identifying this accommodation as a hotel but multiple signs advertising a bar and billiards club! Inside had NO reception desk only a random, unidentifiable man with a cell phone. The building appears to be in some state of sale/renovation and the rooms had paper signs taped to the wall in the hallway identifying the room numbers. The eating area was in shambles. The room we were shown does look like the one on the website so I believe it has been staged for photos. I WOULD NOT feel safe staying here. We cancelled and complained to Hotels.com asking that this be removed from their site. It’s not suitable for anyone. A hostel is better than this.
Front of the “hotel” from the street with no identification other than advertising it as a bar and billiards club

They are trying to get this hotel better but it is lacking in simple things. No bulbs in the bedside lamps. Can’t reach a socket for one of them or the kettle. No hooks for towels. No wardrobe. No bin only a bin liner. Window won’t open. No cups or teaspoon. Had to ask. 2 flights of stairs and no lift.

Difficult to find the entrance as I couldn’t see any signs as it happens it’s the entrance to the snooker hall you need to take. Building is like a maze inside with room numbers printed in a4 paper with pen. When I got to the room there was a number of chocolate bar wrappers under the bed and a coffee sachet had been opened and discarded next to the kettle by previous occupant. Empty tablet packets in the wardrobe and no blinds in the bathroom.

Simple no frills guest house.
This is a simple very budget conscious travelers guesthouse - no frills so don't expect any. Room was clean but table lamp had no bulb and shared bathroom. No heating in room so stay clear of Apartments in Winter. But it is relatively low cost at £75. Breakfast is tea/ coffee, cereal and toast. Hard to find as there no sign at street level

For the price, the room itself was about what you’d expect. What I didn’t expect though was it to be within a snooker club with no signage except printed A4 paper with a different hotel name on it! Ok if you need a cheap room but don’t expect a luxury building and location.

It started with zero directions on how to get there and then when we did manage to find it. Our room was moldy, shower had open drain. Hallway smoke detectors had bright green light all night and went off after midnight. One cup provided in room was filthy. Coffee pot. No mugs. No soap. Curtain falling off. WiFi unreliable. Could hear our neighbors using their restroom. Open vents in walls. Not hoovered very well. I understand budget hotels, but this was something else. I never leave bad reviews, but I didn’t sleep well in this hotel. It was hands down the worst I’ve ever stayed in. It should be closed till they finish renovations or charge about half the price. I mean. Just. Wow.

Floor is not vacuumed bed was clean room was stained and not looked after, for £35 it’s ok for the night if your looking to just sleep some where but honestly would not ever go here again for the price you can stay at a travel lodge and feel safer, looks as if they are renovating a lot of rooms and improving so this might change soon but right now it was pretty much a spare room in someone’s house (code locked doors felt very unsafe, seemed to be the same code for every door)

Absolute dive of a hotel. Check in is in a building across the street, no security for the building, anyone could walk in off the street. Hotel rooms are next to a snooker bar. Hotel smells damp, flies everywhere and generally just very run down and dirty. If there wasn’t a group of us staying we would have left immediately, there is no feeling of safety at all - heard screaming and shouting all night long. DO NOT book this hotel if you have kids.

The manager was helpful and they are obviously trying to upgrade the property. They were renovating while we were there. The problem for us is our room was unfinished with broken lights without coversand dirty ripped carpet but the room had been painted. They should only pur people in finished rooms. They had a nice breakfast area.
