Room smelly. The whole place is under construction with building materials all over the places. Dirty kitchen and toilets. I cannot recommend any middle class person to this facility. It is so ridiculously, poorly maintained.

Staff very rude!

Only one staff was so nice and polite, he upgraded our room and moved us from the allocated room. And he looked after us on personal note. We are very grateful.

This must be the most disgusting place I ever stayed in. It's really hard to even describe... everything is old and ugly, it really is in a bad state. The host welcomed us with air freshner but it still stunk. The host had the nerve to charge us £10 for late check-in. The bed made me want to go home really desperately. My room was number 11. Oh, and the horrible bath is shared amongst at least 8 rooms.

This booking was for one of my colleague. He did not stay at the property even for one night. The location and the entrance of the room seemed like somewhere underground dungeon or a spooky warehouse. The wall by the bed had damp and the window sill was dirty with stains. It was not a place to stay for £112 for 2 nights. I tried to call the place but never got through. Sent a message to the property via hotels.com but never got a response. Avoid this place.

AVOID!!!! WOW!! It looks absolutely nothing like the photos they’ve posted on here. I’ve got plenty of photos for proof of how scruffy , dirty this property is. I had to contact Expedia regarding the issue it was genuinely that manky. Urine marks all over all the towels. Holes in walls. Yellow stinky blinds. Electric sockets popping out (unsafe)! Dead insects in the room. Shared bathroom had damp all over and shower was the most dirty I’ve ever seen in my life. Toilet was leaking and had wee all over the floor. Bathroom door wouldn’t even
Lock either. Rude owner as well had the cheek to charge us to leave our bags in the property a hour prior to check in even tho we paid well over the odds to stay in this dump. This is just a few issues to be honest. AVOID AVOID and do NOT make the mistake I made.

I wouldn’t even give this space one star. The room was disgusting, filthy and uninhabitable. For four female travellers the broken door lock instantly made us feel unsafe. The bathroom was some make shift box full of mould. There was what appeared to be vomit on the curtains. Paired with no electricity and bugs crawling on the beds. We left within 10 minutes of being there and had to rebook accommodation last minute. The hotel also refused a refund despite us leaving being no fault of our own.

During the period when I settled in this hotel, wild people from Africa arrived and the manager specially settled them next to me. The noise and din from this African company was incessant both day and night. I would not want to settle in this seedy place even for free.

Bit of a dive, but you'll survive

The location was convenient for us and the price was good. Don't know if I'd stay again given the choice though.

Pretty dilapidated and dirty. Did not feel comfortable climbing into the grimy shower at all.

If you're in a pinch and need something last-minute or you really can't afford anything else then go for it. You could do worse.

Not a very restful night's sleep.

This was a very cheap hotel, so I supposed i should not complain too much.
The man at reception was polite and helpful.
The room itself was OK - clean with bed, TV, wardrobe.
But the shared bathroom was not up to scratch. I don't know how often it was cleaned, but clearly not often. And there was a huge gap between the shower tray and floor.
Also there was a huge amount of noise from people running up and down stairs in the small hours of the morning.
But as I say, it was cheap so I suppose it was value for money.

I wish i could attach the video, there was urine all over the toilet seat, the walls were falling apart, as well as the celling, very thin walls, awfully creaky floor boards, heard people running up and stairs which were very creaky too, heard whistling and people talking at 11:30pm and door couldn’t be locked from inside which i didn’t like. Couldn’t watch tv as there was only 1 socket, the other end of the room, Wouldn’t recommend

Be AWARE

This is far to even be called as a hotel. It’s more like a Shared house wih lots of people.
This place is also an emergency accomidation for homeless. The area around the “hotel” is also not a nice place to be. You would never want to come to the place like that with the kids. Most of the furniture is broken or faulty in some kind of way. And we got to see 3 of the rooms at this place because of the many issues to even have room with a toilet. The mattresses are old and you can feel the metal springs stubbing your back!

Very basic accommodation, the mattress was more than a bit lumpy and clearly needed replacing and by replacing I meen burnt. I had to fix the window blind as 3 of the vertical blinds were missing on arrival, fortunately I found the missing blind blades in a draw in the bedside cabinet and refitted them.

The covering plate for the ceiling pendant light either hadn't been fastened up properly and was now resting on top of the light fitting or had never been screwed up in the first place.

There were small communal kitchens on each floor that had seen better days, bit untidy but you can't blame the hotel for guesses leaving a mess it was mid afternoon when I checked in and the cleaners were there every morning.

Bathrooms were functional, reasonably clean but again had seen much better days. Missing or damaged fittings, mirrors etc...

Over all I'd have to say the hotel is very basic, a bit run-down even though it looks like it had been repainted recently to a standard that I'd compare to student accommodation and from the piles of building materials sat in the carpark some work had been done at some point.

All said and done it was cheap and somewhere to sleep.
