Curtains did not fit. There was a large stain on the carpet from unknown origin. In the drawers there appeared to be mouse droppings. The light over the sink did not work. The bedding was clean. The person who we spoke to was helpfull. Cheap however.

I love that we did not need to move the car all weekend. Theres 24 hour parking that cost us no more than 3 pounds and Sunday was free. Very welcoming and easy check in. Room was as stated and very clean. Tea and coffee available in the room. We went for dinner at the peking garden that I 1000 percent reccomend and did a pub crawl from the hotel around town. An amazing night out and our 24 hour access key back into the hotel proved useful! The shower was amazing! Super warm and powerful. Easy check out. Thank you the hoptimist for being affordable, clean and welcoming

One night stay in this loud hotel and constant noise all night outside. Booked as a stopover for my daughter and myself but got a call as we were on our way to the hotel to advise that there was Issues with hotels.com allowing children when this is for over 18s only. They kindly allowed us to stay as long as we didn’t go through the bar but to find out a couple of hours before we can check in wasn’t great. The room was very basic and the sink was damaged, the shower area was dirty and very dated.

I had to check out due to the COLD! Read this before going! This was the cheapest I could find. Never again! I check in at the pub ("reception") and there reasonably nice welcome. Had been "upgraded" for free they told me. I obviously said thanks and went up with the host. I got inside, and they left. immediately it becomes evident that heating the room is an issue. The pub is probably an old heritage building, old enough that it'll be daft cold in the winter and hot in the summer. I laid in bed under the duvet to test and see. with pants! still cold! Nose was too. Hands too... No way this would become any warmer. I checked heater, and it was on full blast. Decided to call hotels.com to see what the right procedure would be if I wanted a refund. Phoneguy would stay on the line while I go and ask them for a refund (their advice) Girl in charge was in a darts game on her "night off" and couldnt be bothered to come over. When I did get her over, I told her the situation and that i'd like a refund with no ill tone, but literally just concerned. She wouldn't give it, but gave a speech how guests have complained about everything else in the room but not the heating... very phoned in, as this was something they were used to repeating. Said I shud've come down to them b4 callin Hotels, as If that makes a difference. Rude crew. If your guest is cold, refund! simple! Upgrade was for me to think i'd gotten a good deal. Room tiny and cold. As close to a scam as it gets.
