Für viel Geld die letzte Schrottunterkunft, laut und unfreundlich.
Pros:

Zentral an der Hauptstraße gelegen, gute Erreichbarkeit, kostenlose Parkplätze vor der Tür

Cons:

Auf meine Beschwerdemail an Booking.com am 30.05.2026 mit der Forderung, eine Rückerstattung zu erhalten, wurde bis heute nicht reagiert. Für 72 Pfund ohne Frühstück eine dreckige, laute und unverschämte Unterkunft bekommen. Falsche und ungenügende Informationen zur Unterkunft auf Booking.com. Erst im Hotel wird mit Hinweisen an der Wand an der Rezeption und auf dem Zimmer auf die Laufstärke und der lauten Bar hingewiesen. Auf Anfrage werden Earplugs (Gehörschutz) ausgehändigt. Diese nutzten nichts, da sich mein Zimmer genau über der Bar im 1. Obergeschoss befand. Laute Partygäste im Nebenzimmer. Beim Einchecken hatte man mir versprochen, ein leises Zimmer nach hinten zu bekommen. Fehlanzeige. Auf Nachfrage, das Zimmer zu wechseln, hat man behauptet, ausgebucht zu sein. Das stimmte nicht. Es waren kaum Gäste zur Übernachtung da. Im Gespräch mit Kelly um 1 h nachts, der Barbetreiberin, die äußerst abweisend reagierte, war kein Kompromiss zu finden. Die Ausstattung ist miserabel, die Gemeinschaftsbäder besitzen keine Steckdosen, der Spiegel im Zimmer ist auf dem Waschbecken aufgesetzt (Achtung Unfallgefahr) und nicht an der Wand befestigt, die Vorhänge sind eine Katastrophe, der Schrank hat keine Türen, Regale sind schmutzig, der Fußboden ist schmutzig, im Flur der Teppichboden extrem schmutzig, auf der Toilette nicht ausreichend Toilettenpapier. Laute und dreckige Bar im Erdgeschoss, unfreundliche Mitarbeiter im Restaurant. Der einzige nette Mensch war der junge Mann Lamb an der Rezeption, dem ich zur Abreise früh morgens am 31.05.2026. die Zimmerschlüssel übergeben habe. Die allergrößte Unverschämtheit ist, dass ein Pfand von 35 Pfund für Schlüssel und Schäden erhoben wird. Man müsste bevor das Zimmer bezogen wird, auf alle bereits vorhandene Schäden hinweisen. Mehr Schäden kann man selbst gar nicht verursachen. Jede Jugendherberge und Hostel ist im Zustand besser, als dieses Drecksloch. Keine Empfehlung, besser dort nicht übernachten. Ist kein Geld wert.

Dated but room was comfortable and clean
Pros:

Rooms were spotless. You get what you pay for with the hotel. Bathroom was also immaculate and fresh looking

Cons:

Stairs leading to the rooms gives the impression of a really bad and unclean hotel. Change Stair carpet and paint the door then your onto a winner

Lacking in attention to detail; staff appeared untrained in customer service.
Pros:

Good value. Food in the restaurant good.

Cons:

The reception and stairs area were dirty and needed decorating. Black mould in the shower. The wardrobe door needed fixing to make it work. No bin in the bathroom, no soap for the sink. The rooms were never serviced or topped up with supplies or towels changed. 3 nights running we were promised that milk would be brought to the rooms, but the staff forgot on each occasion. We were surprised to be charged a deposit on arrival in case we broke anything.

Plan ahead so you don't have to panic book
Pros:

Not much. Staff friendly

Cons:

If was filthy, could have been a lot cleaner. Rug was absolutely horrendous and it smelt damp. Paid for two nights stayed on. Above a night club too. Suppose you pay for what you get last minute booking and was full everywhere else. Plan ahead
