Hotel room was nothing like what was advertised, room was dusty and very small, and soon as we boiled the kettle it set the fire alarm off.

Avoid!
I’m not a fan of key box entry and this has definitely confirmed I won’t use them again. On hotels.com the property is advertised as having “free parking”. This is misleading as parking is not on the premises, its on street parking and spaces are few and far between in a busy residential/restaurant area. I managed to park one street over. On collection of the keys, I made my way to room 14, entrance outside of the building. The room was freezing and the radiator stone cold. As instructed, I rang the landline number to be told by an operator in a remote location that someone would be down to fix it. 45 minutes later I had to ring again as the problem had not been sorted. I asked for a phone call to give me a definite time of the engineer arrival. I got a text. 20 minutes later an engineer arrived, blamed the cleaner for “turning it off”? and sorted it, fixing a leaking radiator as well. As the heating had been off for some time, the room took a while to heat up. The following morning, same scenario, heating off. I called the landline and got an automated response saying no one was available and to leave a message. I did and was not contacted so I rang the emergency number and got voicemail. I left a message but after 20 minutes as again no one got back to me, I rang again, and again, and got voicemail each time. It was now an hour after my first call so I went out to the front of the house and found a cleaner who apparently had been told of the problem but did not know how to

Nice Stay
Lovely stay, however finding our room was difficult we actually found out it was through a door on the side of the building which we would have not known about if we weren’t told by the cleaner there. Water from the shower didn’t get very hot, other than that nice play to stay and very clean.

If you want a flop house with a bathroom by the front door so that you have no privacy; if you want a toilet that doesn't flush; if you want a B&B without the breakfast; if you like to rock a DHSS vibe; if you like poorly decorated student rooms from the 1980s - then this is the place for you. It wasn't for me. For the same money you could go somewhere nice. I wish I had.
