The room cleanliness was excellent and just what I expected. However, the toilet flushing system wasn’t ideal — after each use, I had to wait a very long time before it could be flushed again. Also, the breakfast selection was quite limited.”

The room was very cold compared to our previous stay, the heating system was on but not functioning correctly and was too loud so disturbed the kids sleep. The flush in the toilet was not working which is disgusting to be honest. Their was a humming/knocking sound coming from behind the headboard all night unsure where from , stayed in many hotels this has to be the worse experience. Only reason we stayed here as last time we had a better experience. Need another place now in leaicester

The hotel itself and the location is good. The main issue is- as previous reviews have already mentioned- that it is very hot! It was not a particularly hot day, around 23 degrees and it got cool in the evening outside. However, the temperature in the room was too high and the fans just circulated the hot air. Because of that, it was impossible to sleep. There is a sign in the lift that the air-conditioning is out of order which must have been there for months. If this problem was fixed, the hotel would be very good. In the winter, the room may be fine.

Excellent hotel, and superbly clean. Very welcoming. Didn't realise the parking is free for hotel guests, ended up paying £12.50 for overnight stay as the Ringo banner appears just outside the hotel thought it would be a good idea to pay first and then enter the hotel. Very decent english breakfast.
