Disliked: Cleanliness
Ok……Where do i start….This isn’t a dig at the people that worked there but when we turned up it was obvious the painters had been in because of the smell. When we looked at our rooms they were uninhabitable & there was a crazy man wandering the corridor in just hes pants !! I had two of my daughter with me & both myself & Ruby have asthma ! We immediately booked somewhere else & I’ve been trying to get my money back on the two nights but nobody has got back to me other than this site to say everything was above board……Well it wasn’t !!! I wont be using this site or obviously the hotel again.

Bed bugs made us not stay

Came over to stay the night for GNR in the family room, as we were 5 people. * Bathroom stank, we even bought our own air freshener. * the bathroom didn't have a lock * At least one of the blankets was not clean with marks * nit pick: the bathroom did need some modernisation * to top it of there were loads of bed bugs, which resulted us in leaving the hotel and drop my family back home in a 2 hr drive, and ended not staying We're not fussy people but the bed bugs was the key issue that made us leave. But I listed all the issues we faced, so that if can help others. It was suggested that the manager would call, but nothing Nevertheless the staff were very good, and cooperative

Bad sleep

To avoid abuse on a late night bus I stayed here and didn’t sleep a wink all night . Homeless people were given temporary accommodation and the room I was given was dated and had a funny smell . This hotel is like a can of cheap beans it does what it says on the tin .

Express Hotel, Express Service.

The room and en-suite were clean. The bed was firm and comfortable and the sheets were clean. The staff are first class and happy to help. Only one personal complaint, the area outside the window is the smoking area and with it being hot, I had to keep the window open which meant the smell of tobacco and weed would fill the room and the loud conversations were annoying. I am although happy to recommend the hotel.

When we booked a few weeks ago, we paid a surcharge to pay at the hotel. They took the payment before we arrived and then couldn’t find or reservation when we arrived. Then they told us that we had already checked in! How? The room was not great but then it was only a bed for 6 hrs before we needed to get up at 3am for an early flight. Convenient for Newcastle airport

Bike was securely locked to the smoking shelter wall using 3!! Bike locks. Around 3am the bike was stolen. Someone came with bolt cutters and walked out with the bike. Even though thr hotel clearly states "secure parking" and the numerous CCTV cameras werent able to get a single shot of the theif!!. Police are going to deal with the issue. Hotel didnt help in any way, not even a sorry. Even though responsibility of my belongings falls down to them!
