The hygiene in the room was horrible, the bedsheets looked very unsanitary, and lock on the room looked as if someone had tried to pry it open. The pillows were very flat and flimsy which were signs that everything provided was very old and overused. We felt very unsafe and uncomfortable during our stay.

Spacious room, nice kitchenette and basic accommodation. The room was a little tired and smelled a bit musty, but very clean and I slept well. Check-in was straight forward enough at the bar and very nice bar staff member. Several buses can be caught very nearby and it’s around 10 minutes into town (£2 single or £4 day pass). I would stay again :)

The sheets didn't feel very clean. It was a hostel on the second floor of a bar, and the staff were very welcoming.

Room was a good size. Close to a Sainsburys Local and a bus stop. About 30 mins walk to train station. Pub downstairs was a wee bit noisy. Doesnt serve breakfast but you can go to Wetherspoons in the town. Nice enough for a short stay.Outside needs renovating.

Wouldn’t stay again
Carpets were tatty and dirty, mirror was splattered in something. The bed side table was an safe with sicky back plastic on. The door to the room had clearly been forced open at some point and the key and door numbers don’t match ie I was in room 7 but keys had a fob on for room 17. The shared bathroom was dated and dirty so other than having to use the toilet I waited till I was home to shower. Yuck !

If you value your sleep
Room ok bed comfortable staff friendly enough.
Main problem was the music in the pub downstairs reverberating until half past midnight followed by the revellers leaving until one o’clock
