The managers were very welcoming. We shown our room and bathroom and was helped with suitcase to our room. Had a comfortable night's sleep. Fresh bedding and towels. Just had to leave keys in the inside postbox Sunday morning when checking out.

The staff are unwelcoming and mean we had to find our own room and when we went downstairs to the "bar/lounge" it wasn't the most pleasant place I had ever gone the WiFi password is hard to get and the TVs don't work so we played cards to pass the time in the morning we left a door was kicked down by some drunk lads and I was scared for my life the young woman was pregnant and was forced to work there NEVER AGAIN!!!!!

Omg … this is the worst hotel we have ever stayed in anywhere! Yes it was cheap.. yes it was for one night for group of 5 ladies .. but never thought it would be that bad🤦‍♀️on arrival at hotel we were asked to go down stairs to lounge/reception area?? It absolutely stank of piss ! Overpowering ! Ok so signed in and gonna drop bags in cell oh sorry room and out we go . 2 in our room , so double bed &bunk beds, bedding seemed ok pillows very flat.. towels provided but wouldn’t use them … blood stains on carpet. Blood splatter on wall ,one curtain pulled tightly across window and when we seen why it didn’t surprise us, filthy stained windows and view of rubbish dumped outside, tiny sink, propped up on timber legs & no cold water .. manager wouldn’t be out of place on Jeremy Kyle show 🤷‍♀️

Managers are absolutely lovely, upon arrival I was shown downstairs to the bar reception area, they had some classic tunes on which reminded me of my old days, this is such a vibe and lovely people. Nikki Garry and her son and Danielle are so lovely. I will recommend coming again but most of all the bedrooms are clean, nice and comfy, and I sure would not doubt this place, absolutely lovely for the price I had paid to stay
