Für nicht viel Anspruch völlig in Ordnung
Pros:

Für ein Budget Hotel ist es ok

Cons:

Es war nicht wirklich dreckig, aber irgendwie hatte man ein unsauberes Gefühl

Not worth the price.
Pros:

The bathroom was clean & there were added amenities provided (fridge, microwave)

Cons:

Rough location, drug addicts outside the hotel, overpriced, disgustingly dirty rooms…

We didn’t expect much it being a lower priced hotel, but the very basics should include clean rooms, decent towels and clean bedding.

£84 for a room that was barely cleaned….

Sent feedback to customer services with no reply.

Ideal quick stop on your Cotswolds exploration
Pros:

It’s conveniently located close to the station and while nothing happened, the area does look a bit dodgy as it’s in a sort of back alley. Town centre is just a few minutes away, however!
Water pressure of the shower was so good!! Definitely a pleasant surprise!

Cons:

Furniture of the rooms looks a bit outdated, but it’s well kept and clean anyway! The sound insulation with the other rooms is not the best as we could hear everything from the adjacent room, though they probably were keeping tv and music really loud. They stopped when we asked so all good in the end.

Not suitable for warm days
Pros:

The room is spacious and clean. It has the basic facilities as stated.

Cons:

Noise is terrible. The room is very warm when we checked in (it was a warm day). The fan is not working and the only way to cool down the room is to open the windows, which made the noise from the streets unbearable. Even when the street is not noisy anymore, sounds within the accommodation itself is still very clear.
Not the fault of the accommodation as they cannot control the noise from the streets, but definitely not suitable for warm days.

Great location for Gloucester!
Pros:

Perfect location for attending the guildhall. Shops and restaurants an easy walk.

Cons:

We parked in Kings walk carpark. After some confusion the only way to pay 24 hours was to download the app mipermit. This was quite straight forward after we were told
