Liked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
Disliked: Cleanliness
The space was fantastic! It’s very much an extended cottage, and is warm and cozy! The host was very responsive, and went out to purchase a few additional amenities at our request. Very responsive host. One drawback is that there were a few bits that seemed to have been “missed” in terms of cleaning. There were a couple drawers filled with old packaging and garbage, kitchen items had a layer of grease covering them, downstairs bathroom had beard trimmings inside. I do, however, still recommend the stay. It was overall a good experience

Excellent value for money

Lovely hosts and stay. Room was nice, tidy and close enough to the centre for a short walk in to town, far enough away that it avoids any of the noise from a busy Saturday night in Sheffield.

The place stunk of cigarette smoke as you enter the property, we was taken around the back to a house which was not advertised. Was advertised as a cottage, it’s not. Very basic, Everything cooking wise needed washing before use, tv didn’t work, very hot and radiator was on - baring in mind it’s 25 degrees at the moment. Huge crack in the bedroom window, Felt unsafe

The hotel is lovely but coukd do with a few tweaks here and there. My window wouldnt close, towel rail was hanging on for dear life and nowhere to put shower gel/soap in the shower. Could do with a mini shelf in the shower. My room was next to a little utilities room containing a microwave, washings machine, dryer etc. This wad not great due to a couple deciding to do their washing at midnight. I was woken by the door violently rattling, i was literally scared the crap out of me and took me a couple of hours to get back to sleep. The staff were lovey and the hotel was very clean. I feel sorry for the owners because you can tell the surrounding area was once lovely but walking there from the train station, i felt i was not safe at all. Very much an eye opener of the decline of this county but this isnt the hotels fault obviously. The hotel has a bus stop outside that takes you to the city centre in 10 minutes which is very convenient. There's a Tesco a few minutes walk away which is very convenient. Lots of tea, coffee and milk available in the room which is a bonus. Usually not that many in hotel rooms and the mugs were a decent size as well. Soaps, shower gel, shampoos and conditioner provided also.

My room was 'brand new'. Although I thought that I booked a double, it had four single beds. No matter, I was by myself in the end. It was very very clean, as if untouched, but felt a bit unfinished. The main issue was realising on the morning of my departure that there is no smoke detector; just a wire sticking out of the ceiling. It is literally unfinished.

We were disappointed that the breakfast we ordered the night before wasn’t that great, the chef didn’t seem aware that we were having breakfast,even being told the night before. It wasn’t what we were led to believe, which was the full cooked English breakfast. We were told eggs,bacon,sausage,hash browns,mushrooms,baked beans,tomato and toast. We got egg,bacon,tomato and mushroom,with toast and a large tub of butter. And the coffee was instant in a large mug with your spoon stuck in it. We were not impressed to say the least, especially when you are charging an extra £7.50 for it. I think you are asking a lot for the room as it is. Also this is the first time we have stayed in a hotel where the bed is not made up for the next day, and surprised there is no staff on the premises over night. The staff turned up midday, don’t know what people would do if there was an emergency. Must say though the couple that run the pub next door were very nice and helpful. I think there are a few issues that need sorting out.

An excellent experience

This is an excellent boutique hotel. Clean, friendly, and reasonably priced. I recommend it, especially for someone who needs just one or two nights in Sheffield on a business trip and with a limited budget. A big advantage is the availability of parking.

Of all the hotels we have stayed in, this was the most disappointing. There was no reception and we only managed to make contact through the manager of the pub next door. The room, though clean enough, was very cramped with a double and single bed taking up most of the space. The TV was on the window sill which meant we couldn't draw the curtains and watch at the same time. The bathroom was unheated and very little in the way of toiletries was provided. Curiously there were 8 tiny shampoo bottles and only one shower gel bottle. On enquiring about the promised breakfast arrangements we were told that they were no longer available but that there were places 'nearby' we could use. No further information was forthcoming and the only commercial street nearby was down a steep hill. There was no maid service at all - beds unmade and soiled cups just left. This place just did not provide a proper hotel service and was very poor value for money.

Standard room very comfortable and clean

Excellent stay. Stayed in standard king room. Really comfortable bed, everything clean. Staff very friendly and helpful and accommodated special requests. Would recommend going to them directly for these rather than through external websites. Perfect for our stay, short walk to city centre and Sheffield United football stadium.
