ibis budget Newport

Too many people at breakfast , some even standing up to eat ! Not enough table and chairs !

I thought it'd be like a cheaper version of a 3 star hotel chain. I was right in some ways. But everything poor quality. The doors / thin walls / tired carpet etc were clearly poor quality and felt like I was in a budget youth hostel. But ok, I still had a safe, clean enough place for the night in a budget pinch. The bedroom smelt of stale piss the moment I walked in. No soft lighting or lamps. It was industrial white bright light, or nothing - seems like could be a quick win to change that, but it really is bare minimum money spinner.
I was in an accessible room, so no steps into the shower / the bathroom was a wet room by design. That's all good. But when I went into the bathroom the smell was worse, the piss odour was no longer stale! It was very very apparent that people wee in the shower from the smell, which was just obnoxious (and I could only hope I'd go "nose blind" as I got used to it). I definitely forwent my shower in the morning, I felt dirtier considering it. I would not consider staying for more than over one night as a super-budget option.

Quite difficult to find car park entrance

The first room smelt of smoke so i asked to change and the room i moved to smelt of damp

Very basic. Mattress was lumpy. No curtains, just a blind. Shower cramped. No hot food at breakfast. Desk not big enough to be useful. Only a plastic stool for a seat.

My single bed seemed smaller than a single. The mattress also seemed on a slight slant so I had to sleep on my one side otherwise felt I was going to.slide out of bed. Location is ok but it would be quite a long walk into town and the walk back wouldn't be safe at night; so 2 X taxis were needed at a total cost of £15 so this added to the cost of the stay.

Just the shower was not very hot , it’s ok if you don’t like it hot ,

Room could do with a extensive clean and plug sockets near the beds so people who use a C-Pack machine do not require to move the furniture.

I get its abudget hotel but it was double the price it normally is, the room was terrible and did not feel clean at all. The staff were scruffy and whilst polite I thought could make more of an effort. The hotel itself is like a prison....except I would prefer to stay in a prison.

Das Hotel liegt direkt und damit meine ich knapp 40 Meter, neben einer Autobahn, weshalb Ohropax ein muss sind. Alles an dem Hotel wirkt alt, egal ob das Haus an sich, die Schilder, die Einrichtung, der Fahrstuhl, die Bodenbelege usw. Ich war auf dem 4 Stockwerk untergebracht und wenn man aus dem Fahrstuhl gestiegen ist, kam einem sofort ein übler Geruch entgegen, den ich nicht wirklich definieren kann, aber ich nehme an, dass dieser schlichtweg von dem alten Teppichboden des Flures kommt. In meinem Zimmer roch es nicht so, dort ist aber auch kein Teppichboden. Die Matratzen sind komplett durchgelegen, ich lag quasi in eine Kuhle. Das Hotel ist günstig und das merkt man in allen Aspekten. Für 1-2 Nächte ok, aber für einen längeren Aufenthalt nicht zu empfehlen.

Not enough towels
