Leicester Homestays

DON'T WASTE YOUR MONEY STAYING HERE! We stayed here for one night and were met with a long list of problems: The general cleanliness of the apartment was extremely poor, with multiple marks on all walls, and especially evident staining on the living area wall. Rips and large stains on the bedding. Lots of fungi build up in the shower area. No cutlery provided despite having an oven and hob. The glasses provided had cracks down them. Bathroom tiles and living room floor boards were loose. Dining chairs were falling apart. Bedroom wardrobe was falling forwards with nails sticking out the back of it Although stated there would be, no towels were provided (despite being 40 degrees outside and all needing showers). When we re-requested for these at check-in, they arrived almost 2 hours after arrival by which point we had to leave for our evening out. We have tried to contact management several times via email and phone calls after conversations we had with the manager during our stay where we expressed the issues we had. We have been ignored and provided with no resolution or even an apology for the conditions we were staying in. On occasions when we have got through on the phone and gave the name our booking was under, we got told by the staff member on the phone that they couldn't help and that the manager was busy before abruptly ending the call. I'd avoid staying here at all costs and go somewhere much cleaner and with friendlier and more understanding staff.

We were travelling as a band, group of 6. Had travelled from Glasgow to Nottingham the previous day to play a gig, then onto Leicester and London. The owner had phoned the previous day to inform us that there was a problem with one of the rooms, seemed very polite and apologetic and would organise accommodation elsewhere for 2 of our group. We were fine with this. However, upon arrival we were informed by the guy managing the place currently (as the owner was out with some health related issues) that we all had rooms there. The rooms were open and keys were in the drawers. We went upstairs and only the 3 bed room was made up and another guest was still staying in one of the rooms and was out at work so we wouldn't get that room until later. Our group all hung out in the 3 bed waiting on the other room being made up. The ”manager” stood at the door of the room for over an hour talking nonsense and sharing details that no-one needed to hear instead of making up the other room. The worst possible scenario when you've just travelled 6+ hours and played a gig the previous night. The ”manager” took 2 of our party into the 2 bed room to get it made up (no reason for this, just wanted to talk more nonsense). The 2 bed room had obvious signs of water damage (most likely the room the owner had phoned the previous day about). Brown damp spot on the ceiling in the corner of the room, the wallpaper peeling off the wall and the room smelled awful. Previous guests things were still in the drawers. One of the beds in this room got made up in that time and he had to leave to get another sheet, never came back. Our group decided to just get out of the place for the time being. We arrived back later to pick up our gear to go soundcheck at the venue down the road and the rest of the rooms had been made up. We returned later that night and couldn't get in the front door so we phoned the number asking to call for access. This was the owners number I had spoke with the day before and he sounded genuinely surprised that we hadn't been given the access code. We got in and went upstairs before going to bed, on of the boys flipped his pillow and found what appeared to be blood stains on the pillowcase. We all slept on top of the duvets that night in our clothes because we didn't trust that anything was clean and got up early the next morning to leave as soon as possible to head for London. We had booked the breakfast in advance but we didn't want to chance that either knowing what state the rooms were in. Overall, an unpleasant and uncomfortable stay. Would not book again given this experience and anyone looking to I would hesitate until the owner manages to sort out the problems with staff and the condition of the place. It's a shame because I'm not sure the owner actually knows how the place is currently being run.

There's no way anyone could feasibly give Glenfield Lodge 5* and I'm sure the owners don't even strive for that. It's less than a mile from the city centre and is basic - it's mainly used by companies to accommodate construction workers during the week. The room had a working basic TV, kettle, and sink. The toilet and bathroom (both very clean and functional) were at the end of the passage. The building is tired internally. No doubt about that. It is a place just to sleep but - here's the rest of it. The gentleman on duty was polite, friendly and thorough. Even though we were only staying for one night we were treated very well. The beds and bedding were clean and very comfortable. To our surprise, it was extremely quiet. Either no one stats there at the weekends or the residents are very considerate. And now the biggest thing - £37 for a twin room booked only a few days in advance. Incredible value for money.

Myself and a friend travelled to Leicester to combine visiting my Daughter at DMU and shopping ! It was our first time staying at this hotel and we were not disappointed . We were able to park in a secure car park very close by and were minutes away from the University , shops and Restaurants . The room was very spacious with 2 beds, tea and coffee facilities , hairdryer and an iron and ironing board and an en-suite shower room , everything was clean and very comfortable . Breakfast was included in the price and did not disappoint ! Cereals, fruits (huge selection) yoghurts, croissants , cold meats and cheeses, boiled eggs , toast and tea, coffee and fruit juice all with an unlimited supply . The staff were very pleasant and polite . I would definitely stay here again . The car park that we used only cost £10.00 from lunch time on the Saturday until 16:30 on the Sunday . Please note the car park is locked overnight and does not re open until 10am Sunday so would not suit people needing an early start .
