Took 40 minutes to check in as there were too few staff on the front desk. Dumped bags and left as we had a dinner reservation. Toilet blocked on arrival, we were only there for a night and couldnt be bothered to report at 10pm agter returning from our dinner reservation as just wanted to go to sleep. Walls paper thin, could hear next door talking until 2am, and the other side snoring. The whole place is out dated and needs upgrading. If it wasnt cheap, we wouldn't stay, and if it wasnt for the fact it was 10pm when we realised, we would have probably found somewhere else to stay.

Well they have improved since the last time we stayed. This time I have no complain. Our room is okay, clean and tidy, the toilet is clean and there's no mould on the wall. The bathroom has improved and looks newly refurbished. I like it this way. Hopefully our next stay will be like these room again.

Hotel revisited.

I stayed in this hotel regularly in the seventies, when on business and I wanted to see what has changed. The room was as I remembered, spacious and comfortable. The ground floor has been revamped. One aspect that should be addressed is the WC flush. It uses a lot of clean water during for every flush. Modern systems are much more conservative.

This hotel is very dated and needs major renovation, however it was clean and everything worked. Breakfast was poor, barely warm. Milk and sugar were not replenished in our room for the second day, but plenty of coffee! Phoned reception to request milk and was told someone would bring some up but this didn't happen. There was no personal touch at this hotel, we weren't spoken to by any member of staff except on arrival/booking in.
