31 minutes to check in was not a great start. What was the point of emailing in advance to get me to do online check in? The room was basic, but cheap - you get what you pay for. Such a shame this building with its incredible exterior is so tired on the inside. Needs gutting!

I was really unhappy with my stay. The room was ok but the bed and pillows were terrible. My pillow one hard and I only had one and old and the mattress was lumpy and I could feel the springs. It was late so I didn’t go down to reception to rectify it as it was about 2 am.

Unfortunately, this is the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. The manager was exceptionally rude and stated that if I wanted to change rooms, I would first have to check out and then accept whatever alternative they chose to offer. The room itself was in an unacceptable condition. The window did not close properly, making the room both cold and very noisy. The sink was cracked down the middle, and the wallpaper was peeling extensively throughout the room. Despite raising a formal complaint, head office has failed to respond for over two months, which demonstrates a complete lack of customer care. I would strongly advise anyone to avoid staying here under any circumstances.

Bar not open because it was ‘quiet’ it’s a hotel and part of the advertised services, rather than two or three on reception one could have been in the hotel bar. I wouldn’t stop again unfortunately- closings services that those staying want to use is poor
