Isolated location but enjoyable stay.

The hotel is in an isolated place but there is a sister pub/hotel nearby and many buses into town. The Metrocentre is nearby (a disappointment) and the Rowers has funky old fashioned ship-related decor with wooden panels and antiquated-style bathroom furnishings. The only drawback are the doors to each room which need to be pulled hard to close.

Insanely comfortable bed, not for the squeamish!

Really difficult to review, at first view it is 0/5, it looked closed, no one answered the door, the car park was untidy, the surroundings were scruffy - but ......... the room was interesting nautical theme, cabin beds, some type of stuff on the side of the cabin bed (not sure what it was). But the room was warm, the beds were insanely comfortable, and there was wifi and a TV in the room. Some of the fixtures and fittings would shame the 70's, and badly needs a makeover. But you get what you pay for, and for cheap bed for the night, close to a bus stop that takes you into the heart of Newcastle in 10 minutes you cannot go wrong. So, on balance I would give this 3/5. It is after all a 2 star hotel so I wasn't expecting the Savoy.

Feed back for hotel

The hotel really needs work doing to it. The bathroom was really badly tiled. The room was so out of date felt like going back to the 60s. I can see that this maybe good for a night if your looking for something really cheap and going to a football game and k ow your coming back drunk. The room walls are so thin that you could hear every word said next door.

Stay here if you want a dirty filthy bathroom

Check in experience terrible, nearly walked away. Bathroom filthy, hairs on floor, used toiletries left on sink and cracked/broken tiles on floor. Cheap and cheerful is fine but didn't expect dirty. No-one around at check out so couldn't leave any comments. Friendly staff when found them eventually, but a dirty bathroom is not what I signed up for.

One look at the exterior persuaded us to drive on and book a different hotel. Outside the entrance was a dishelved woman smoking. No nearby safe parking. The interior looked disgusting with dirty curtains and junked piled up against the windows. Clearly a DHSS hostel. The metal gates were shut with slurry beneath. The back yard was full of junk. I have since looked at the recent reviews and im soglad we didn’t stay there. How can Expedia recommend such a place?

No service, dodgy remote control.

Very basic. Issues with remote control. The buttons weren't doing what they should. The channel up button was the volume button and it got loud but i couldn't turn it down. Tried calling front desk but no answer. Reported it next day and was told thanks for mentioning it. No apology. Wont be staying again. Room shook when vehicles passed.
