The room was advised as a queen bed - instead it was a SMALL double against the wall. The other guests were disrespectful and loud at 3am so our stay wasn’t as nice. The auto heating was inconvenient as it was needed when it wasn’t on and wasn’t needed when it was. Location was convenient

Misleading description

The place is presented as newly renovated. On the outside its most certainly not. There were no hand rails on the outside stairs, making it very hard for me to enter and exit. I had the help from a friend for the first no nights, but asked for a refund for the remaining nights. I mean: who doesn't put up hand rails on a renovated hotel. I was denied a refund

Atrocious - do NOT stay

If I could give a zero rating I would. Absolutely awful and will never stay again. The room did not align to the photos which looked modern - how long ago were those photos taken? I was left feeling the photos were gross sales misrepresentations. There was a hole in the wall, the room stank of urine, lots of what looked like peeling paint, window sill was not secured down. Stay at your own risk, you have been warned.

Average room, no shower

Accommodation was just about okay for crashing for a night for an event, amenities weren't great for the room (stuff was left for making a coffee, but in a dirty cup and no milk), shower in Room 4 didn't work at all, no way to get it to turn on or any running water, had to leave unwashed in the morning.

No smoking allowed in the property - room stank of smoke - no milk left to make a drink - no sign provided for do not disturb- or please clean as per the message I received. The shower was broken and you had to put it on cold to get a hot shower , however for the monies paid for the stay the room was acceptable - parking was horrendous no room for a big car like mine - you can squeeze 3 small cars on the front car park but no more than that

The amazingly abysmal experience of us

Amazingly bad. I just cannot believe it. The shower was soo weak that we literally could not take a shower. The room was so small that we could not walk in it. The electric kettle did not work. There was ao much noise pollution we couldn’t sleep at all. Every time any body went out to smoke a sigar we woke up. By the way, it had lots of spiders in the room. I have pictures of them. The last one I saw was more like a tarantula than a spider. I’d rather sleep in the dungeons of Mordor than Albert view.

Just ok to stay 1 or 2 nights

Pros: For the price paid, the location is reachable and space to park a small car, my bedroom is room 13 which is basically a loft room with its own shower/toilet - a good to have. Room was facing inward and no big noise but the room has bad sound proof and you can hear the movement around. Bed is comfortable and clean, TV is good and big (Sony). Cons: First bad thing is the key box at the entrance is a bit struck, spent more than 5 minutes to open it and lots of frustration thus caused as this residence is unmanned and there is no way you can ask for help - luckily it has finally opened. Secondly, a big step down (over 15cm) into the bathroom may lead to an incident especially when you are sleepy. Thirdly, this room may be very hot (in summer) or very cold (in winter) as located at the loft (maybe, as I didn't encounter heat wave when I stayed there). Finally, the water pressure is weak and the electric shower can't provide hot or warm water at all (only cold water regardless of the setting) - hence I will say it is ok to stay for 1 or 2 nights if you can skip taking shower.
