The property was a bit disappointing as restaurant wasn't open so no meals at all available, we'd hoped to add on breakfast, bar was open for evening drinks but very quiet. The 2 staff working were friendly and helpful. My room was on 3rd floor which wasn't ideal with a toddler but I was allowed to leave buggy downstairs. Rooms were very warm, I had a small window/side of a bay window. A shelf with tea and coffee facilities and a small TV. First day I had water leaking from roof above, staff member attended immediately and advised person above had left shower door open while drunk but now sorted. Needs updating but a basic budget hotel if wanting low cost few nights. Parking is extra, you can park for 30mins outside to unload luggage and Alfred car park is cheaper and just 5 mins away. Wouldn't stay again but I should've researched a bit more.

The room, we stayed in family room, and there was barely any space to turn around, the bathroom - you needed to wait around 15-20 minutes till warm water started. Curtains especially in that room where we stayed need to be replaced or washed A part of it, the hotel itself (or enter the hotel ) pretty clean

When I turned up at the hotel after booking it 2 hours previously there was no one around on reception, after ringing the bell numerous times a man eventually appeared…first of all he didn’t have no knowledge of the booking and after consulting his laptop eventually saw my booking and gave me the key to room 11. The hotel was dead quiet I never saw or heard anyone around ….a tad eerie if you ask me anyway I ventured up to room 11 and found the single bed not made up, tv didn’t work (signal trouble) and no mug for a cuppa….only good thing was the shower was ok! I did phone the number that was left in reception if you had any issues which is fine but if nobody bothers to answer then what is the point of that. Thankfully I only stayed one night and when I did check out there was no one around at 10am so I left the keys in the box which was located on the wall. I would NOT recommend anyone staying here!!

I booked an air-conditioned room because I have a 3-month-old baby, but I was given a room without air conditioning. After I complained, they only provided a fan, which was not what I had booked. The hotel also advertised an English breakfast, but breakfast was not available until after 8:30 am, which was inconvenient. Overall, I was disappointed with my stay because the room did not match my booking, and the facilities and service did not meet my expectations. I would not recommend this hotel based on my experience.😔

Unfortunately this hotel had changed management since the last time we had stayed there a couple of years ago. Nobody serving in the bar on an evening, reception even in the middle of the day at check in time there was no staff member in sight. Once we got to the room, the room door lock had enough play in it for me to fit my finger behind it. Very small shelf for a kettle, 2 mugs, and sachets of coffee, tea etc. Another problem that we found was that there were no bedside lights or anywhere near the side of the bed to charge our mobile phones etc. Bed was comfy though but glad it was only a one night stay. Improvements needed.

Very basic. Could hear girls arguing late at night from one if the rooms. Woke up at 630 as could hear other guests taking showers and music/tv from close rooms. Room was clean but very dated
