The shared bathroom facilities were totally inadequate. The toilet seat was broken and there was only one toilet. The doors are very noisy and hard to open and shut. Luckily the bed was comfortable. The staff were lovely but I would not recommend the Albion for a stay to anyone.

Stayed here for two nights and had a good experience. It's exactly what you'd expect for the price range. Clean enough. I think the bad reviews come from people not knowing what they're in for when staying above a pub. I recommend reading all the reviews to know exactly what you're in for, then there aren't any surprises (slight tobacco smell, noise from pub, loud old doors, shared bathrooms etc).

Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
I enjoyed the modern room and big comfortable bed also being able to control the temperature in the room. I enjoy being able to come and go as i pleased as well. I didn’t like having to share a bathroom having to go through the pub to get to the accommodation stairs, there was no kitchen upstairs for tea and coffee etc… also there was no insulation from the noise downstairs in the pub. In the end though it suited my needs as i just needed a place to sleep for the night before travelling back home.

Overall is good experience. The staff is nice that allow me to go back to the hotel to take a shower after the full marathon run in Newcastle. The bathroom is shared and clean. It would be improved if the room can have some sort of kettle and small table can be provided inside the room.
