Nothing bad at all really to say about the place, clean bed and room for the night. Not for some, but if you want something 10 minutes walk from the Tube and 30 minutes from the centre of town, you're laughing. Clean, not too noisy. Just the only thing was the room was like an oven and it was only April and mildly warm. Heated floor couldn't be switched off in the room, asked at the bar and was told someone would come and look, nobody did. I'd say the hotel may want to buy some fans and stick them in the wardrobes. That's literally my only critique. Oh and if you're struggling with stairs, it won't be for you!

The room has been refurbished and looked okay, however there were no tea or coffee making facilities in the room and when I asked about a kettle I was told there was a kitchen near to our room with a fridge and microwave, I checked and it was marked staff only and didn’t have a kettle any way. The room was very noisy all night with music and noise from the pub and people coming and going to the small hours. There was a cigarette disposal unit right in front of our window where people gather to smoke and extinguish cigarettes. One of the single beds prevented closure of the bathroom door. No hot water available when I wanted to take a shower or to the sink. We left to find somewhere to get a coffee and breakfast and then went back to the pub, We went to go inside to report the problems and a young girl stood out front telling us they didn’t open until 11am,we said that we were going to check out as it was very noisy and there were no facilities or hot water, her answer was Again…and then no problem, to which I replied it is a problem but she wasn’t interested and carried on texting on her phone. To call the place a Hotel is a complete stretch of the imagination as hotels belong to the hospitality industry and we had none, it is not even a B&B. Just rented rooms. The owners need to look at it with fresh eyes to see what is needed when guests stay! Refurbishing rooms alone does not make it a Hotel/ place to stay. The only good point was a free drink on arrival,
