We arrived and parking was important to us and satisfactory. Reception was quiet and they persuaded us to take a special offer of dinner, some free drinks and breakfast, only available at time of check in. We arranged to meet a friend in the American bar where we watched three security guards trying to persuade a local addict to put on his shoes and leave, he was finally manhandled away. As told we went to the Restaurant at 6pm to find it closed and went back at 7 when a waitress told us it was closed that evening. Annoyed we complained and a Manager informed us we could get a snack in an extremely crowded and ultra noisy bar. This was not what we had planned for our guest, we did however get some shoddy fish &chips. The room was acceptable. Generally a very poor experience particularly at the price we paid.

The toilets were disgusting and smelly. This hotel needs an overhaul. Fantastic building. Even the communal areas aren’t bad but the rooms are terrible. Mattresses uncomfortable windows need replacing.

Its tired, needs a lot of work to freshen up. Bed was comfortable, room was clean but had a weird stale smell. Would only stay here again as a last resort.

Impressive in terms of space, layout and range of facilities. And staff are very helpful. But age has made it shabby - a bit scruffy and dirty. Prices are correspondingly reasonable. Set your expectations and enjoy your stay.

This is a Large older hotel with fittings etc in line with its age the Hotel is well located for both main train stations and shopping despite a number of previous reviews that scored the hotel very low I enjoyed my stay my room was clean comfortable and provided you with everything you needed from nice clean towels and complimentary toiletries and a Flat screen TV. Thanks.

I arrived at night (1am) and found a group of people outside the hotel smoking weed. I pressed the night bell and the door was opened by other waiting guests. During check in the clerk said my hotel room number unnecessarily loud while other people were present. This made me feel quite unsafe. There was no safety lock on the door which is really worrying. As I entered the hotel room it smelled of dust and ‘old’. The room seemed clean overall. The bathroom sink was very cracked. During the night there was eery banging. Positives: There is a kettle and tea provided in the room. There’s complementary bathroom soap, shampoo, shower gel and lotion. Check out is very quick and easy.

The smell from the public toilets on the ground floor was awful most days on the last day there was excrement on the bathroom floor. I also had blood on my bathroom floor and I felt unsafe walking on the 4th floor. Doors slamming and screaming at 2 am not pleasant . Although I paid for Wi-Fi I could get no signal in my room on the 4th floor. There was some dodgy characters around in the foyer and my friend got a fright when someone grabbed her from behind . It was her first time in the Uk . On a positive note the towels were white and fluffy and the bedding clean although the mattress was uncomfortable but they are refurbishing so perhaps it will improve . The staff must be indicated with complaints that must be horrible for them . I felt they are probably doing their best . The room only gets cleaned in between guests . I sadly won’t go again .

Great location. A hotel with so much character. Dated but not in a bad way. You almost go back in time whem going in the door. Only thing which i didn't like is the room was very small as a twin room. Should of been suitable as a single person. Other than that an all round nice place To stay. A wonderful communal area to spend time too
