Hotel staff had received my booking but neglected to enter it in to their manual system so I was told the hotel is full and there's nothing they can do.
After a quarter of an hour of confusion and phonecalls they gave me a spare room which was spacious and nice.
Overall, ignoring the unpleasant check in, the hotel is quite ok for crashing in for a few hours before flight.
Considering the price range of the area, Hobbit is decent value for money.
