Disliked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort
Glad to get away from this rundown hotel and area.
To be fair the new owners had only bought the hotel two months ago, and they were trying to improve it. But they could not do much about the location, a really run-down area with shops that had been boarded up for years, pavements that were trip hazards ever step you took. But the hotel car park gave no confidence when we arrived, weeds everywhere, signage not clear, hoped that our car would still be there on return. Reception was just about OK, but pavement outside had spittle on it, and some very shifty characters hanging about. No lift to room but that was OK, but room was inadequate. No dead lock and door jamb looked broken. No working plug in basin, and did not run away, Light in bathroom so dim you could not see. No bedside tables or chairs to put case on. to be fair, it did seem clean, nice towels, and coffee etc, and evidence of a repaint, though not properly finished. And worst of all, no food at all available - eventually walked up to a kebab shop and had something to eat (after a long drive up from the South Coast). The cost was almost £40 - ironically almost the same as the brilliant one we stayed in near Gloucester on our way home.
