The parking was easy enough, although there were some leaves and small twigs on the car after the two nights - maybe I should have parked the other side, away from the trees.
It would have been nice to know there was a fridge in the room - I don't know is there is one in all rooms.
The double-glazing sound proofing from the M62 traffic noise will help those who want a quieter room when it's not too hot.

A well run and convenient hotel near to Leeds city

Given its very modest room rate, this hotel overachieved my expectations.

I was very comfortable with large well heated rooms.

It was cleaned and decorated to a good standard - above what I expected at this price point.

Parking was good and convenient.

It was a short drive into Leeds city centre where hotels are three times the rate and without the parking convenience

In summary, I would stay here again as an overnight stay.

Top tips:

I saw no evidence of food service, The proprietors have
left a list of takeaways and restaurants and made arrangements for you to eat on-site.

Reception closes at 8 pm - for prepaid visits ( I used hotels.com) they will make arrangements to leave you keys in a secure box that I was able to access at 11:30 pm following a late arrival from London.

There is a bus stop outside with direct service to Leeds city.

We stayed here 5 years ago and loved the place. This time we found the place was tired and very poorly maintained. The room was generally clean but some details were inadequate eg there was a bottle of hand wash and a bottle of body wash, but no shampoo. We were there for 2 days but there was only one toilet roll. We ran out on the first day but there was no one there to ask. I went to the gents toilet hoping to find one, but they had run out too. We had to go to the shops and buy one.
We had another issue and rang the phone number provided on the business card, but no one answered. We would not stay here again.

Pretty much the worst ive ever stayed in.

I am always honest and give a review based on the stay. It was very poor overall. When we first arrived, our initial thought was the hotel looked a bit dated. We are by no means snobs or posh but we expect a certain level of cleanliness, this didnt have much as you will see in the pictures. The room we was given, we was happy at first because it was the opposite side to the motorway so would be quieter. Anyway, we went in and the room looked very old and dated. Not bothered about that. We dont go through things with a fine tooth comb but when you find one thing wrong, you start looking. The bed sheets were dirty and stained with the valance sheet had blood, dirt, stains, footprints and poo on it. The bed itself was 2 singles pushed together, different bases. Had bed bugs and spiders in the sheets plus pubic hair. The walls were very unclean with lots of marks. Window sills were full of mould and not been cleaned for, well, years. The carpet had stains,marks,hairs, cobwebs and even an old sticker, not been hoovered for months. The bathroom was so filthy i think a dog had been washed in there, with mildew, hairs etc. The toilet brush was full of toilet tissue which, in turn, was full of poo. The toilet seat had a massive spike sticking out of it. All in all very very poor. Admittedly they did move us rooms and it was slightly better except for the dust, broken light hanging down and a ripped bed sheet. Do not stay here.

Low cost by very tired hotel

Average hotel, suitable only if a low cost stay is required.
The only real positives were the proximity to Wakefield and the very friendly lady that welcomed us.
Located alongside a ‘very’ noisy motorway.
Room was very small and in need of a refresh (carpet needed a thorough cleanse).
Poorly kept grounds - gardens overgrown and garden furniture appeared unused for years.
Would not choose to stay there again.

Lovely throughout very clean and tidy. However i went for the super king room but the bed wasnt the comfortiest it was two mattress together and one side was lover then the other with only 2 pillows which defeats getting a bigger bed for the night. The tv also wasnt a smart tv so not much choice of things to watch if your staying in there throughout the day. But overall it was a nice stay and would stay again just not in a super king bed.

A nice, relaxed environment compared to bigger chain hotels. didn’t mind us coming in late and even let us stay longer than we were supposed to in the morning. Although there was not a hot breakfast option, there was cereal, toast, cappuccino etc which was great to start us off for the day. Good location as it was only a 15 minute drive into the city centre. Thank you again to the hotel manager for being so kind and chatty, we would definitely stay again.

Get what you pay for

The lady who checked me in was lovely; very efficient and friendly.

The rooms are nice, clean and comfortable if maybe a little tired looking in places (in room 7 above the shower there were signs of a leak from upstairs). My room was very small which was fine as I was a single occupant, but definitely not big enough for two people. As there is no food offered on site it might be nice to have been supplied a little fridge or something in the room to keep milk and things cold. Nice that there is a welcome pack in the room that gives locations of local places to eat.

Really not a fan of the check-out procedure at all! Due to reception only being open in the afternoon, and check out required by 10.30 am, you leave your room keys in a basket in the hallway. Meaning after you check out, but before the reception is manned, your room key is left out whereby anyone could take your room key and enter the room and cause damage, steal things etc. and the hotel would have to assume you did it. Really think a more secure post-box type system should be introduced if you want to continue with this check-out procedure.

This is very much a \"get what you pay for\" type of hotel. Cheap compared to other hotels in the area, but also certainly lacks amenities. Would consider staying here in the future, but only as a single overnight stay if I was passing through the area.

Ok for a stop over

Overall I would say the hotel was fine for a stop over. Not sure I would want to spend a long time at the hotel. The room was nice, good value for the price and decently furnished. The staffing was a bit disappointing. There was no one on reception when we arrived and when someone did check us in, were then told the chef was off and there was no food available. It's proximity to the M62 also led to some road noise. We only used it as a base and only spent a short time in the room other than to sleep. I would suggest it would be fine for one night stop over, but wouldn't recommend for a long stay.

A converted vicarage. Set back from the road with ample parking. It is next to a motorway, however road noise was only evident when windows were open (so not something I think needs to be a concern). Restaurant (currently) closed, though there are tea/coffee facilities in room. Only one building has ramp access and (most) doors need two hands to operate (one for lock, one for handle). Overall economical, clean and easy to recommend as a place to stay.

Stay at Wakefield Limes

Overall for the price we paid I was happy with the accommodation & would stay again if in the area. There were some maintenance issues & little touches that could be improved on. The shower head was hanging down as the holder was broken so you had to hold the shower head with one hand. There were soap dispensers screwed to the wall but no soap containers in the holders. Little things like tea & coffee but no teaspoon to stir your drink & take a teabag out. There was a sticky patch on the bedside table & quite a lot of dust on the shelf underneath. The pillow cases were put on the pillows inside out which I thought was a bit odd. All small things that could be improved on with a bit more attention to detail. However it wasn’t enough to stop me staying again.

No chance of staying again

Turned up at 7pm just beforev the only staff member finished her shift. The advert said there was a restaurant and bar. Perhaps, but with no staff there were no facilities. After 7.30 you would have had to phone soneone to get access to a key box. The room was ok and there was free parking. But the hotel backs onto the motorway so you cannot open the window without being deafened. And you could hear the people next door. When i booked iit said it included a continemtal breakfast. No sign of that when we left just before 9. Generally worse than B&b.

Lovely staff, hotel- not great!

The staff were excellent and really went out if their way to be helpful. Unfortunately, however, the hotel was very noisy with no sound insulation meaning that other guest's movement or relatively quiet conversation could be clearly and intrusively heard. I was disappointed in the breakfast on offer... despite having dining facilities, breakfast was a selection of pre packaged items in the room, with no fresh coffee... this seemed cheap, given the price of the room. The shower in my room was also problematic, as there was no way to effectively reduce the scalding temperature! Normally, the opposite is the problem! And the \"king size\" bed was 2 singles attached, with a big, uncomfortable ridge down the middle, that effectively made it a single bed only. The hotel did not live up to the standard of the service! Disappointing!

Good location Hotel clean & friendly

Arrived at hotel free parking. Check in was good, we were arriving after 8pm let hotel know, however reception is manned till 10pm & emergency mobile No if needed. We we shown to our room.

Hotel room & all areas where clean, beds comfortable, enough storage in room and tea and coffee making items were good, and even some small bottles of water, which was a nice touch. Room was warm, but a fan was available ( could open window if you didn’t mind traffic noise from close proximity of motorway). Shower was powerful.

Hotel details states breakfast was included, we thought this was a cooked breakfast. To be advised on arrival that it was continental breakfast only and if you wanted cooked there was an extra charge of £7.50pp each day, and you had to say the night before if you wanted a cooked breakfast. You also had to pick a time slot to say when you were coming down for breakfast, because hotel was full.

We decided to just go for continental breakfast the first morning and there was plenty of choice, cereals, pastries, fresh fruit, yogurts and toast / jams. A selection of fruit juices, and tea and coffee.

As you had to decide the night before for cooked option we didn’t try the cooked breakfasts but they did look nice.

Staff were helpful when asking for advice on places to visit or best place to park etc they were knowledgeable about the area.

Great location,we visited Wakefield Harrogate and York. Lovely stay would use this hotel again and recommend.
