Friendly staff, great value for money, and exactly what we needed
Pros:

The staff stood out the most. They were so welcoming and I have to say some of the friendliest I have encountered!

It was definitely value for money, we have been back since, and will go again 😊

Cons:

There was nothing we didn’t like, it was perfect for what we needed!

Location wasn’t the best and it lacked facilities but we were looking for something last minute and cheap in that very area so we were very pleased with what it offered

Pros:

It's a budget hotel (a means to an end) , but what made my experience an outstanding one was the gentleman on reception (Tom)
What a lovely and knowledgeable guy.
A credit to the company for sure.

This is my second stay to an Ibis and both times I have been blown away by the tentative and friendly staff.

Excellent experience 🙏

Cons:

Nothing... Had a lovely stay

Disgusting - No not stay
Pros:

I wish I had had time to read Bella's review below as it is spot on.

I knew as soon as I walked through the doors I had made a terrible mistake. The corridor carpets are dirty /grubby and smell strongly of dirty smelly feet.
My room smelled of a mixture of urine and damp. The toilet is very low down and you feel you are in a tiny damp cupboard.. The bed looked clean but felt very hard and by then I was honestly too scared to take my shoes off.

Everything about this hotel felt disgusting. I had to attend a meeting and returned quite late. There were people hanging around the hotel late in the evening that led me to believe this hotel is used in questionable ways.

I checked out and did not stay the night.
These rooms ought to be priced at no more than £45 per night.

I do not recommend

The previous ibis response to 'Bella':
As an ibis Budget hotel, our rooms are designed to provide simple, functional accommodation at an affordable price. The room layout, bedding and bathroom configuration are part of the ibis Budget concept.

This is not a true reflection. These rooms are terrible and are not priced to reflect the standard.

The whole place need a complete refurb and deep clean.
