Great solo stay
Great location for visiting son at Uni. Staff really friendly. Room spotless- no problem with yoga on the carpet.
Josh in the mornings great - didn't catch the name of the guy in the evenings - with a great mop of hair
Felt safe and welcoming travelling alone

Very good
Room was fine but located downstairs below the dining room so people dragging their chairs across a wooden floor for an hour or so was slightly annoying but otherwise all good.

The Rodney was a convenient distance from the railway station. It was old but cared for. Perfect for my one night but would have been happy to stay longer if I needed to. Amber the waitress was great and I enjoyed the restaurant food

Very nice hotel for the money, no aircon but had a fan and the room was comfortable. It’s clean and in good condition, service was freindly, parking is minimal outside the hotel but on street parking was perfectly fine.

Friendly staff but not great conditions
Small room on top floor, not too convenient with all the stairs. Electric shower was not easy to use. But staff at lobby was friendly and helpful. Room service was not amazing, they changed linen after three days (if I remembered correctly) but didn’t clean the floor for you. They washed the mugs poorly and put them back (there were still tea marks). One day around midday, room service lady knocked the door, I told her to come back later because I was still getting ready, she told me but they finish at 12.30, so can only do 12.20 (I found it a bit bizarre that room service was done that early, you lose it if you don’t get out in the morning).

Great location and friendly staff but it’s just too noisy for me. 6am bin collection across the road seemed to be endless- so unless you are an early riser be aware of road noise and external noise- everything else about the hotel was great 😊
