Clean and tidy, lovely room, beautiful bathroom, friendly helpful staff, lovely breakfast, the only thing I didn't like was no tv in the room but that's just me.
Car parking is across the road and discounted for anyone staying at the hotel which is a bonus. Great selection of food at breakfast buffet. Based in City Centre, close to many shops
Staff were friendly enough on check in. Was surprised by the £3 charge for parking as thought it was free parking. He didn’t mention anything until after I had submitted my registration. But maybe it’s on the site somewhere and I missed it. Cut myself on the bed as screw was sticking out so screwed it back in and bed seemed to be half decent and half lacking springs. Very noisy guests but can’t blame the hotel for that.
I believe in you get what you pay for. For the price we paid, we were very happy with the room. 24/7 reception service was also excellent. A bit further out from main Quayside- a 25 minute walk.

Quiet, safe place to stay
Hotel is quiet, clean and safe. Staff were very friendly and helpful. There are few mod cons and shared bathrooms etc and no dining facilities. As long as you know what you're getting in advance its fine.
The room and en-suite were clean. The bed was firm and comfortable and the sheets were clean.
The staff are first class and happy to help.
Only one personal complaint, the area outside the window is the smoking area and with it being hot, I had to keep the window open which meant the smell of tobacco and weed would fill the room and the loud conversations were annoying.
I am although happy to recommend the hotel.
Certainly not the ritz but the staff couldnt do enough to make our stay comfortable. Beds were comfy, rooms warm. Water pressure a bit low in the shower but it was clean and close enough to city centre. You get what you pay for and to put our heads down at night and get showered it was a perfect room for us.

Great location to travel around local areas. Staff were so friendly and accomodating to your stay. You just had to ask and they were more than helpful. Its a converted care home with signs of wear and tear. Some rooms would challenge people. But to be fair staff relocated us on this visit. The breakfast is excellent value if booked in advance and is plentiful. For the price its offered at a reasonable rate. Well worth a visit.
Didn't have breakfast. The room was awful with EXTREMELY dirty carpets- I wouldn't put my bare feet on them. The room was really basic and needed a complete overhaul. The bathroom was cold and had a wobbly toilet seat, a sloping glass shelf you couldn't use and hadnt been refurbished in years. You have to pay for parking, although this wasn't mentioned when I booked. The only redeeming feature was that the reception staff were very helpful.
