Dump

Arrived at what looked like taxi rank but no apparently the hotel was above this. Walked into the entrance just off the street and was hit with the smell of cannabis. Got in the lift, which also smelt of cannabis, to go upto the reception which was in the third floor. Checked in and went to find our room. We got to our floor and the smell of cannabis was even stronger. Got in the room and knew immediately we were not staying here. The bed was a black velvet material, covered in questionable stains and dirt. The bed sheets were stained with orange makeup stains. The bathroom had mould all in the shower and the ceiling. Off cuts of carpet being used as rugs which looked as though they had never seen a hoover or a clean. The ‘roof terrace’ is a balcony on the same level as reception overlooking the taxi rank out the front and a Wetherspoons surround by junkies and homeless people. You can also see into the rooms on the 3rd floor from the ‘roof terrace’ where a man was sat smoking cannabis. Without a second thought we got our bags and left and walked 15 minutes away to the nearest Premier Inn.

I want really happy with the quality of the mattress and overall cleanliness of the hotel. The wall was peeling off around sockets. Didn't even want to use the shower because there was so much dirt around where the water goes and it's covered by a water mat inside the shower. Overall i wouldn't say if was worth the money i had spent

Disliked: Cleanliness
It was alright but one thing that made me feel incredibly unsafe and uncomfortable was the fact that our door was left open during the time we were out by room service. Apparently they had forgotten something so they went upstairs to collect it. Me and my friend arrived after going out and about to notice the door wide open. We noticed some cleaning supplies so we assumed that room service would return. We waited about 30 minutes. Still no sign of anyone. Later that day I made a complaint as it was incredibly reckless. The manager had apologized and explained why it happened but didn't treat it as a serious issue. Probably won't book here again :/

Not worth the stay.

Small blood stains on the pillow and the floor was not swept at all - was plenty evidence of hair from the previous guest. Entrance door could easily be left open and since there was no reception from 10pm that allowed individuals from outside to make it inside the hotel premises. That led to one occasion unfortunately homeless people sleeping inside the entrance of the property by the lift. On top of that one night I had the wonderful experience of a drunk person knocking on my door and trying to enter at 2am in the morning.

We received a phone call from this property when we were enroute asking when we would be checking in. Never had this before and thought it to be quite pushy as there are no times set out on the listing as to when you have to check in by. It was only an hour after check in time. Also the room had a musty smell, possibly due to poor ventilation in the bathroom. The side tables in the bedroom looked like they hadn’t been dusted in months and some of the bedding was dirty. The bed was however comfortable, shower hot and tv worked so not completely awful. Maybe just a couple of things to improve on.

Needs some maintenance ...

The hotel staff were lovely, check in very quick, and a good central location. The hotel itself is old however. The first room I had the a/c didn't work and there was a small and noisy blower heater on the bedside table, and a half full bottle of coke that had leaded in the fridge. The safe was also broken. Moved to a different executive room, the a/c was temperamental and refused to turn on two different days the bedhead fabric was torn, glue spilled on the large writing table top and chair, the safe was broken (apparently they are in all rooms). The glass recycle garbage truck parks directly opposite the window at 05.40am to collect the bottles from the pub, making enough noise to wake the dead.

Very good location with economical parking option. Room is in good size and looks nice at first sight, however, when walking around the room, the floor is sounds, the fan in bathroom is sounds. And room clean service looks like not available every day, during 4 night stay my room only been treated twice. Been visited Leicester many times, this one is most central ever but hope it improves.
