The perfect place for the traveler who wants NO amenities, hot water or soap. If you are looking for a cheerless, dingy and stained room without any redeeming qualities, this is your place! Uncomfortable beds, stuffy and plently of street noise rounds out your experience at the Gresham Hotel!

The room was disgusting and stunk of urine. The curtain was just a poorly hung sheet across the window. The floor was dirty and the lights didn’t work. Booked an en suite - the shower was approx 1 square foot and was connected to the toilet

The staff at this venue were lovely and the bed was comfortable. However, the shower had no hot water or tepid water, every shower was freezing cold and I had the opposite problem with the tap in my room, there was no cold water only hot. There was a tv in my room but no remote so I wasn’t able to use this and there was no wifi that I could find. The location was excellent and allowed me access to everything I needed access to. Overall, this hotel is great so long as you aren’t spending a lot of time there and don’t mind only having two extremes of water temperature.

Very budget hotel but excellent location and good value for money. Yes hotel is dated and very minimal but it felt pretty clean, friendly staff and had everything we needed. For the price this was very good value. Showers were super basic, mattress very old and dated but overall we had an okay stay.

Worst hotel room ever. Leakages on the ceiling. One towel. Creaky, uneven bed covered with thin mattress so you can feel metal springs. Dirty window stays open with toilet paper roll holding it. Shared one toilet and 2 showers for like 10 rooms, no shower gel or shampoo. Less light from the lamp in the room than from candle. Big plus - no bedbugs so far!!! Make your experience unforgettable, go for it!

Staff friendly and courteous. Room clean but in poor condition. Toilet seat way too small for the pedestal (it was fixed - not loose! See photo). Light above bed not working. No fan to cool room. Partially open window not adjustable (extreme hot weather). Bed very uncomfortable. The only power outlet was for the tv, high up on the wall. No outlets at “normal” level. I was present in reception when another guest came down to complain about their accommodation.
