Disappointing

I visited the property on 30 of may for one night only .... I haven't never stayed in a room that falls apart and a bathroom where you can only use the shower side ways .... The receptionist was friendly and so does the housekeeper . The only clean things in the room where the sheets . Location wise was fantastic but really for £80.00 is was a joke . Of course I won't never stay there again ,I only booked it because it was the only place available location wise .

How is this on here?

In all honesty, I would never bother again. Utter shambles and quite horrid. I only stayed here as everywhere else was fully booked and an extortionate price. I would have been better off sleeping in the car. Don't get me wrong, the staff were friendly, but it is a shocker!

But workers did try hardest to fix everything breaking such as no tv ariel shower door handles breaking and curtain pole falling down. Couldnot shower as water just stayed boiling hot. Sink also had blood spat down it not cleaned and shower was filthy. One bed had blood on sheets but they did change it asap

Shoddy

Poor throughout. No breakfast. No parking. Toilet seat broken. Wifi didn't work. Room so small, it was like playing Tetris just to fit our bags in. No room for a chair. Only room for one bedside table. Couldn't sleep because of the screaming and fighting of the pissed-up holidaymakers in the vicinity. Shoddy

This property is run unprofessionally. In my opinion it is a serious fire, health and safety risk, unclean, and unworthy to be called or sold at any price as a hotel. I am surprised it is on your listings? They did not even have our redervation.

Awful but cheap

I don't really know what to say about this place. Yes it was very cheap but needs improvement. Room 3 very cold, heating inadequate, awful draft from windows. Dirty shower (but hot), toilet hardly flushes, dirty cup, tv stand broke so tv was on the floor with about 3 bbc channels working, a previous guests pants shoved down the side of the bed and someones pot pipe on the wardrobe. No fridge or wifi, not that this bothers me but shouldn't be advertised if not available. The only reason I would stay here again is if absolute desperate.

People smoked weed in the rooms and there was a heavy smell everywhere. There was no bin in the room and the cups were dirty. Guests didn't get a code for the entrance unless they ask - how would you know you should ask about it? So there were 4-5 people who couldn't come home after a night out because the card was not enough to open the front door so they rang and shouted and banged on door under our room and I ended up walking up and down on the stairs at night to let them in. Otherwise the employees were kind and we just wanted a short break very cheaply and we got that so it's all good eventually.

They weren't aware of our booking on arrival, there were no bath towels in the room then none available so had to make do with hand towels, no curtains so sleeping beyond dawn impossible, paper thin pillows, broken shower than ran super hot to freezing at whim with a broken shower head that had rusted away from the wall and kept falling on you. Good wi-fi, great location, clean linen, friendly house-keeping but overall very disappointing.
