Susan

Disliked: Amenities
Bare bones- decent bed, good air conditioning for hot days, good breakfast & quick check-in. Beyond that , it’s bare bones- no room amenities like a box of tissues, a notepad, no fridge, no kettle, no extra coffee, no bathroom amenities like a shower cap/bar of soap, shower gel was running very low, no safe to store valuables. It’s literally a place to sleep.

Hotel ok but location not so good

Nice enough hotel, very clean and rooms at usual Ibis standard. Location not great though if you require to sleep occasionally as too many yobs and drunks doing their best to keep everyone awake at 3am. Not the fault of the hotel of course but still an adverse factor.

Verified traveler

Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Great location but worn down, poor finishes, lights kept flickering and room wasn’t cleaned properly. Black out blinds but no curtain or screens meant either the room was dark and cut off from outside, or fully bright from the light. No tea or coffee facilities, no plug sockets beside bed. All fine and manageable, and no major problems but just not what you expect from an Ibis and would make me think twice about booking Ibis again.

Nice vibe, good price close to train station area. Breakfast was nice and started at 6, which helped with out early exit. Staff were helpful and lobby bar/snack bar was friendly. Weirdly the floors in the room crackled and popped as we walked. Foam mattress works ok and room was nice and quiet.
