I needed to stay somewhere with short notice and whilst I was appreciative of obtaining a booking, I would never stay at Arrow Spencer Street again.
Firstly, the confirmation email via booking agent I rcvd said the reception was open till late at night. Upon arrival there was a sign stating reception closed at 5pm. I contacted the listed number and ultimately (after much to-ing and fro-ing) check in was completed. When I expressed my dissatisfaction the person I spoke with said the website stated they closed at 5pm. I checked Arrow Spencer Street and it did not state this, so far as I could see.
The room itself was appalling. Marks and grime all over the place. The window was utterly filthy. The wardrobe door was askew. The only seating was a cheap and nasty plastic setting and one of the chairs was wobbly. The bathroom was an utter disaster. The toilet cistern made a hideous noise for most of the night. The bathroom vanity was in an appalling state. The shower door was very difficult to maneuver and given that it was glass this was quite unsafe. The shower did not drain and within several minutes of the shower being on it turned into a foot bath and leaked on the floor. The only positive was the bed and which was quite comfortable.
Overall I would rate the property at between a 1 and 2. Arrow really should have paid me to stay at the property rather than me paying a fee. It was quite simply one of the worst properties I had ever stayed in. I will never return.
