Cons:

Ibis Budget St Peters was one of the worst places I’ve stayed. The cleanliness was disappointing, the staff were not friendly or welcoming, and I was charged extra for parking. The hotel was also extremely noisy, which made it difficult to rest. Even basic things like an extra towel were not provided when requested. Overall, a very disappointing experience and definitely not somewhere I would stay again.

Pros:

Water pressure was good in the shower

Cons:

Kettle was completely calcified with black scale flaking off (water was not drinkable) The milk was curdled. The shower needs a curtain (water went everywhere). The sink tap had a terrible squeal. Only 1 stool so had to eat our dinner on the bed. TV didn't work. The quilt on the bed should have a quilt cover on it - It is unhygienic to only put a sheet above and below it. The room needs a really good deep clean. Walls and underneath surfaces particularly. Even though it is dated, it could be cleaner which would help overall presentation.
