Last minute stay.

Very clean, possibly would have been nice to have some apps on the TV. The shower didn't have a lot of pressure, and the bathroom lacked a radiator. The bed was comfortable enough.

Very Disappointed

The bed was terrible, two singles pushed to make a king but mattresses at different heights so very uncomfortable. One side the bed sloped up so couldnt lie in the bed without feeling unwell. The otherside was nearly 2 inches lower. The bath was filthy as was the floor to the bathroom. The walls in the bathroom needed a good clean and the towels didn't look clean either! The room was extremely noisy could hear running water from below most of the night. We didnt try the restaurant as it was limited to italian style food which wasn't what we wanted.

This property has no staff on site. And there is no one at the end of a phone when you need help at 2:00am because your bed is riddled with bed bugs who are feasting on your face, arms and chest. I had a terrible experience. It’s only after the helpful Expedia agent who was on call at night tried to get a refund that I received a response. They offered to move me to another room, but no one sent a follow up email to check on me (I was in a lot of pain with swollen face and eyelids), and they offered no compensation. It’s been 3 days since that incident and I am still struggling with the bites all over my body. The hotel committed a serious breach of health and safety practices and their only response was to offer to move me to another room. I should also mention that the main road leading to the hotel is closed. This causes severe traffic jams in the morning and in the evening. They sent no communication about that before I checked in. I have never felt so upset and disappointed with the way I was treated. I won’t be booking this place again,

Lovely room.

Our bedroom was lovely, clean and comfortable. However, it was a nuisance that there was no hairdryer in the room. The hairdryer was outside in the corridor, to be shared with other guests. Also the tv was very small. Future guests should be aware that the bar and restaurant are not run by the same group.

Ash

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities
I booked a stay through Hotels.com for last night, as I was arriving after the regular check-in hours. Following the instructions in my booking confirmation, I contacted the hotel to inquire about their late check-in procedure, which was listed as available. That evening, I received a message from the hotel confirming my stay, along with the room number and door access codes. However, upon arriving at the hotel and entering the room I had booked, I was shocked to find other people already sleeping there. I immediately double-checked the confirmation details to ensure there wasn’t an error on my part, but the room I was given was indeed the one I had reserved. I have since messaged the hotel about this issue and have yet to receive any response. I am requesting a full refund for this unacceptable experience.

Was a bit worried about the contactless process but it worked super well actually and allowed us to come and go as we pleased. Bed was comfy and our daughter slept very well in the cot provided. The only things I would maybe say on the negative front was that the shower could have been better but it did the job!

Strange operating system at this hotel.

A lovely room, spacious and comfortable, but what a strange operating system at this hotel. They have no reception, but email you your room number and key safe combination. Numerous individuals hanging around in the afternoon/evening who I assume were staff.

Disliked: Amenities
Accommodation was adequate with a few problems, there was a water drip noise echoing up the bath plug hole disturbing our sleep, the shower flow was extremely poor and the handle support would not support the shower head so it drooped making it impossible to have a normal shower. Noisy doors banging shut late at night and early morning. A place to AVOID in my opinion, I’ve stayed in better Travelodge at less money !
