The room look like clean, but I can feel some insects on my body when I was sleep and I can see very small insects on my belongings. Window was very strange, It will hit the body when opened. It will hurt when careless. No staff stay in reception, customer needs to ring someone to open the entrance door. Customer need to climb stair from car park to lobby, don't carry anything, it very inconvenient.

I registered my car on their ipad at reception, but have still received a fine for staying in the car park. Tried to contact the hotel, but have been completely ignored....

Really large triple/family room, could have got another bed or two in and still had space to wonder about. Comfy bed, good bathroom, breakfast didn't start til 7.30 so had to miss that as I had an early start, however, they also have a restaurant next door, had a very tasty curry. Will be back, not very much onsite parking but plenty of free street parking out front that is free 7pm til 8 am. Will be back if i'm in the area, hopefully not such an early start so I can try the breakfast, hope it's as good as the curry.

The check-in and out time was too long. There’s no one fixed in the reception so you just have to keep waiting and waiting. You may have a tired day already and come up with this kind of no mans land is absolute terrible.

Everything was perfectly ok for a reasonable and good value overnight stay - the room was clean and had everything needed but the mattress was very uncomfortable indeed, needs replacing. Sadly I had a poor night's sleep due to mattress being long past its use by date. A shame because everything else was ok.

Disappointed that this hotel is listed by hotels.com Having stayed at many, we were surpised to find this as poor as it was. No english-speaking night staff made communication difficult. We had two rooms, both of which smelled of the indian restaurant below. This isn't mentioned.

Was supposed to be a soundproof room but you could hear everything outside of the room including the constant noise of traffic and people talking in the street and outside the room and the shower had only one temperature which was extremely hot and the temperature would not adjust. Other than that the room was clean and the bed was comfortable

The room was a decent size but there was a strange smell in the room, the bathroom was very small and hard to manoeuvre around. There was a lot of mould around the seals in the shower. The bed had a large dent in the mattress and clearly needs replaced. The walls of the room need cleaned, tv remote was filthy. I only stayed because it was a single over night stay otherwise I would have found alternative accommodation.

Got the impression that the hotel had just been renovated however there were still elements of the previous state....damp on the walls, dirty and insects crawling around in the bathroom.

The rooms are very spacious and reception and dining area is very nice. We were however made to wait outside for a while before we could get in. In fact another resident eventually opened the door. And there was no apology nor explanation when staff came. The carpets are dirty and the room smelled musty . We slept with the window own to minimise the smell. The breakfast service was good though
