2/10 Poor

One image says it all. Avoid at all costs. The hotel smells of mould/ damp as you walk in. I was told I had the best room. Hotel think it’s completely acceptable to let a child sleep next to a mouldy bed. Bed linen dirty. Walked out of the hotel, was told I could get a refund only for them to retract once I disputed with hotels.com

Lauren, 1-night trip

2/10 Poor

We didn't even unpack and left due to damp, moldy, smelly room, water damaged stained floor in bathroom. The room we booked was not the room we were given the photos used on Expedia are probably from the previous owner as they look nothing like it inside. Aweful. Makes me question using Expedia as they can't have checked the state of the place!
Jeanette, 3-night trip

Eric, 2-night trip

2/10 Poor

Crawling with bed bugs
On arrival nobody was there jst a phone number. He arrived after 5 minutes and took us to our room whilst on the phone in another language. He opened the door and left. The room was basic which is fine. The room was filthy, the cups full of grime. The worst part was the bed bugs!!! We approached the owner who said the room has been cleaned!! NEVER! We was out of there with no refund! Having to find another hotel at 3pm in the afternoon!! Absolute hell hole
Jodie, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Our stay
The hotel is tired and dated but was clean and staff were friendly/helpful. Our room could have done with being abit bigger, was more suited to 1 person not 2
