Reviews and Ratings
For £45 per night, I was pleasantly surprised with the cleanliness and tidiness of the room, despite some dated furnishings. The carpets were stained, but overall, it was a decent stay considering the price.
Upon arrival, the hotel gave off a slightly derelict impression, and the room cleanliness left much to be desired with visible dirt and dust. While the warmth was appreciated, the overall state of the hotel was disappointing. The staff were friendly and accommodating, which was a plus, but the dining experience was subpar due to limited options. Although the location was convenient, the need for updating and poor facilities were notable drawbacks.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. While the room was clean and the bed was comfortable, it was overall tired, gloomy, and unattractive. The service was a hit or miss, with some pleasant interactions but also some issues like trying to charge extra. The location was convenient, close to the motorway, with free parking, but had some drawbacks like moldy windows and fittings in some areas. The dining options were essential for me as a business traveler, but unfortunately, they were lacking. Overall, there were some ups and downs during my stay.
The hotel is conveniently located near the Nuffield hospital and close to Newcastle, Stoke, and Hanley. The room, though reasonably priced, was a bit scruffy in places and uncomfortably warm during hot weather. The cleanliness could be improved with stained carpets and uneven floors.
I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were a major letdown with uncomfortable beds and a broken toilet seat. On the bright side, the service was superb, especially James on the evening shift and the friendly receptionist. The location was the saving grace, being close to lively pubs and restaurants, although the overall area seemed neglected. The dining options were lacking, forcing me to venture out for breakfast, but the made-from-scratch pizza was a pleasant surprise.
I was slightly disappointed with my stay at the hotel. The room I was given was not what I paid for, and it felt a bit tired with stained carpets. On the positive side, it was free of charge, and the service was helpful and friendly. However, the location was not great, and the area didn't leave a good impression. The dining experience fell short with cold meals and a delayed breakfast setup.
The hotel had a mix of positives and negatives. The rooms were pleasantly scented but quite cold and dirty. The service varied from very friendly to not all that helpful. The location was satisfactory but in need of maintenance. The dining options were limited and not well-prepared. The facilities were lacking in some areas.
The hotel had a convenient location close to my job, although I got lost a few times finding it. The service was efficient, and the staff were friendly and helpful. The dining experience was not impressive due to limited options and pricing. The rooms were in need of renovation but were better towards the back of the hotel.
The suite room I stayed in was old and worn, not totally disgusting, but could use some updating. The service was very accommodating, friendly, and helpful, even though I was told they couldn't provide milk for the room. The location was convenient, close to the Nuffield hospital I needed to visit, with easy access to main routes and on-site parking. The dining experience was affected by ongoing renovations, making it challenging to access the bar and restaurant for an 8 am breakfast.
I had a disappointing experience at this hotel. The rooms were so dirty that I found hair from previous guests in the bathtub, and they seemed old and run-down, like something from the sixties. I even had to switch rooms, which was not a great start to my stay. The service was extremely poor, with staff failing to address cleanliness issues and a general lack of professionalism. The location, however, was convenient for travelers looking to break up a long journey, but the state of the hotel overall was a letdown.
