Short stay in downtown Newcastle.

This is a lovely little hotel in the midst of downtown Newcastle. We were staying here because of my sister’s 50th birthday party. Great location, clean and comfortable and very friendly staff.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Perfect location, clean property/refurbished, great value if your going for a night out in Newcastle as long as you don't plan on getting into bed until about 1am as there is live music etc downstairs which we enjoyed during pre-dinner drinks on our balcony there.......I would definitely stay again if I was having a night out in Newcastle. If you did want a quieter room then request to be on the street side of the hotel away from the back of the building where music is playing.

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We liked the nice room, the excellent service of the staff and the food in the area was good also. The convenient close, flat walk to the Town Hall was fabulous. We did not like the loud music nearly all night in room 110. We will be going to the Ukulele Festival next year and would like a room on the other side of the hotel away from the music. We are both over 80 we will book in the new year.

Grotty and grubby

Room and especially bathroom was dirty. Hair in the shower, sticky carpet in the room and utensils that felt grubby. Thank goodness we only had one night there - it was one night too many.

The room we were in had the loud noise of the airconditioners from the round building next door. The security/floodlights on all night which shone into our room. Otherwise everything else was OK except that it didnt allow for a good nights sleep

Kathryn

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Quiet, good beds including the sofa bed. Run down and needs updating badly. Public areas shabby and unpleasant. No fan in bathroom. Nowhere to place your soap in shower as dish is broken. No rubbish bin in the bathroom. Three teabags for three adults is very mean. Hot water takes forever to come through and is unreliable as suddenly becomes scalding then goes back to reasonable level of heat.
