Pleasant and friendly owner.c
Pros:

The room was very basic and clean.
The double bed I used was very comfortable with fresh sheets.
Was greeted when I arrived and helped me with my luggage up the stairs.( 13th April )

Cons:

Shower operation tap was damaged and I couldn't control the heat with it.( I had a very hot shower.)
There was damage to the tiles of the skirting board in the shower room which was noticeable and sightly.
Bed lights stopped working when in use.
Shabby and needs painting as you walk into the entrance of the building.
I had difficulty contacting anyone to let them know that i was there the first time i came. There was no network showing. I had to ask the information centre opposite to help me.
Struggled with getting my luggage up the stairs.
( 31st March )

Pros:

Im struggling to find anything to be honest. But at a push the location was central and good.

Cons:

Well where do I start.... lets start at the beginning..... it was my birthday, i also got engaged..... it was a magical evening.....BUT .... from the minute i opened the entrance door to this rather run down establishment ( if you want to call it that) i was highly disapointed and disgusted at how filthy and grimey and dated this "hotel" is. The windows were filthy, there was a thick layer of dust on most surfaces..... no staff manning reception. We had to ring a no written down on paper at reception and was answered and told what room we were in which was room 9. I think the communal and bedroom carpets were dated from the 1800s ..... filth..... the room was grimey and really dated..... anyway we went out and had a lovely evening.... came back to our room and as the night progressed, things started to get rather strange. My fiance and i were enjoying some " couples time" and each time we were enjoying couples time sudden loud footsteps seemed to appear out of nowhere ..... it was very offputting and rather weird and seedy. By the 3rd time we realised this was either delibrate or some kind of pervert tryinf to listen. The place is a disgrace, unmanned, dirty, seedy and unsafe. The entrance door is left open all night, anyone can walk in. We didnt sleep and would highly advise anyone against booking here. They could make it beautiful but its just a rancid money spinning hell hole.

Pros:

Bardzo stary, zaniedbany budynek- brudna stara wykładzina, krzywe schody, brak recepcji-podszedł zaspany, ale bardzo miły pan i pokazał nam pokój i podał hasło do wifi- więcej nie widzieliśmy nikogo- klucz przy wyjeździe do kartonika. Łózka duże, ale bardzo miękkie, pościel czysta, łązienka ok. Na jedną noc ok- ale nie na dłuższy pobyt. To raczej hostel a nie hotel.

Gute Lage, nur für sehr kurze Aufenthalte zu empfehlen
Pros:

Nah am Flughafen und bequeme Betten und großes Zimmer. Es gab Kaffee im Zimmer.

Cons:

Ziemlich alter Teppichboden, sehr Spiegel, Sauberkeit war mittelmäßig, aber hat mich bei der einen Nacht auch nicht besonders gestört. Leider kein Kühlschrank vorhanden. Ein extra Handtuch um die Hände abzutrocknen war auch nicht da. Duschgel und Shampoo pro Person nur ein winziger Beutel. Für mehr als die eine Nacht hätte das leider nicht gereicht. Im gesamten eine renovierungsbedürftige Unterkunft mit guter Lage.

Very dissatisfied
Pros:

The price and convenience to town centre.

Cons:

Lack of parking. Window missing and secondary glazing inadequate for warmth and noise. Bed mattress really uncomfortable. Bathroom door damaged and bathroom light did not work. Communal areas grubby and flooring uneven.Had requested a lower floor room due to my partners health., but had to negotiate lots of stairs and uneven floors. We were very disappointed and extremely tired when we left and will be seeking a refund.

Strange people!!!
Pros:

I woke up to the manager in my room!
She was stood at the end of my bed with this man that shadows her every move.
Awful people I packed my things and left there and then.
