First might was good. Second night disappointing
Pros:

Ideal location and good value for money

Cons:

Problems with power meant I had no lights, TV, fridge did not work and could not charge phone. The problem started at 7.30 pm and was not resolved when I checked out next morning. They still charged me for breakfast though!

Worst experience ever 😪
Pros:

Good location
The stay was awewfull, we went to do athletics all day to come home to a room that had no power
I spoke to the duty manager and she said she would look into it ,I waited down stairs with other paying customers and a build up of people, the manager said she would look into it but never come back with an explanation as to why there was no power or if it was to be getting put back on
We went back to the room to live in darkness and no heating, the toilet was to dark to see in so it was a disaster, we couldn't watch TV or even our phones as we ran out of charge during the day and needed power to charge them
We bought food which was in the fridge and was meant for our next day lunches but was spoiled by a hot fridge, it was the fourth floor and the were other rooms out as well, the manager never come back
And we were left to do without.
We weren't offered an alternative room but left to our own devices in darkness and no electricity.
The power was still out when we checked out at 10am so we had to try and charge our phones downstairs which wasted hours of our time.
This treatment was appalling, how can paying guests be treated this way.
I've asked for a full refund plus compensation for our food or a re booking for the 4th of October.
If nothing happens I will be doing a full Google review.

I am not happy at all
Booking.com received money back from budget
Already this year for my booking and didn't refund my money as requested.

This needs to be resolved today.

I am not a happy customer 😒

Cons:

Appalling treatment and evasive answers from staff regarding power outage.

Pros:

Location and staff were great. The room type was what we expected

Cons:

They put us right near the lift so everytime someone used it we were woken up.

Communication not great prior to going as i tried to contact them regarding a much needed change to accom but was not gotten back to till 6/7 hours later (tried both booking.com messages and Ibis Budget directly)

The bunk squeaked everytime they moved in bed. I didnt mind sheet provided but my teenager didnt like the plastic feel of it.

For paying over $300 for one night i did expect a little better
