we have been to this hotel last year and wasn't the best due to previous hotel managers but heard from friends that it was under new management so thought would give it a try again and was very pleased with the changes the new manager has done to it he does most of it on his own and a very nice polite man apart from being a Liverpool fan lol the rooms are decent size for the prices and bar and games room reasonable prices will defiantly be staying again for what he deals with he needs a pay rise keep up the good work

Beds were comfy, it was cheap and close to everything we wanted to be close to. However the room did feel a bit tired and dated, could’ve done with a good clean before we got there (we found a previous residents socks under the bed) shared facilities were ok, showers were nice and hot and had good water pressure.

Dirty bedding, hair still on pillows, obviously not changed, rubbish on the floors, bed was filthy, bathroom mouldy, hole in the actual walls, yellow shower curtain. Was just vile, was promised a refund and still waiting, reception acknowledged how bad it was! Wasn’t expecting luxury as was a budget stay but the room to at least be intact and clean!

We stayed for one night was booked for 3 but my dog became ill and we had to go home to say our goodbyes I honestly can’t fault the staff they gave my little girl a gift bag of goodies and was amazing the room was really clean we was beyond impressed with our towels and shower gels and mini soap there was tea making facilities and cups the only downside I can say about the room was there wasn’t plugs close to my bed but to be honest for £27 a night it was amazing and well worth what I have spent

Don't come to this hotel, it's horrible. Bad smell, a lot of noise, dirty, beds in poor condition. I'm disappointed . There is a pub downstair, lots of noise, people shouting. It's true that the prices are cheap, but it's not worth coming here.
