The Crown Hotel

Definetly didn’t look as good as the pics. Took 20 minutes to run a bath. Had to keep the window open as it was boiling in the hotel. Where ever you moved you had creaking floorboards. Worst mattress we’ve ever slept on. No support whatsoever. Walls looked like either discovered or damp patches. No toiletries for bathroom except toilet roll. Regular clientele of the hotel look like it’s gets used as a doss house. Folk near the entrance drinking alcohol and smoking certain substances. Won’t be returning. Paid less for decent hotels with no problems and all the extras.

The accommodation stayed in was not as advertised, we hoped it would have been a place that was suitable for a night, but it just created worry and discomfort the entire time staying there. The first room we were presented with was not at all as expected, the walls were stained with marks and water stains. The bathroom was dirty and unacceptable. The bed covers and curtains were stained and window sill covered in mould. Having asthma I was not comfortable staying in this room. I rang to reception and requested another room and told them it wasn’t at all how it was advertised, which the receptionist didn’t understand why. They provided us with a second room which was larger and slightly better than the first but still not good enough. Stained walls, mouldy curtains and window cills. However due to being exhausted from travels, we decided to just try and sleep for the long day ahead the next day. Both myself and partner were unable to get any sleep as the bed was terribly uncomfortable, we could feel the spring badly through the mattress. I have attached some images for you to see for yourself. This is completely unacceptable even with it being a cheap stay. The images need reviewing and updated on your site as the public should know what their money is buying them. We complained to hotels.com and they were very unhelpful. The hotel told them it was all fine so wouldn’t help us. Not impressed. Do not say here or book through hotels.com. Not even worth it for a night.

Do not stay here! The pictures are not anything like the actual hotel, it’s very outdated and looks dirty. The carpets are filthy and the bedrooms are quite frankly disgusting! The bathrooms hadn’t been cleaned, hairs in the bath and even the toilet hadn’t been flushed. And a very disgusting wet mark on the floor that looked like urine. One room had the curtains nearly hanging off (a family room!) mismatched, wall paper peeling and stains on sheets. The pillows were nearly flat and the duvets so thin. The ceiling in one of our two rooms had the paint peeling and yellow marks from a bad leak and there was black mould in both rooms. If it wasn’t for the fact we had one night booked and arrived at 10pm i would have found us somewhere else to stay. Embarrassing to call this a hotel, I’ve seen cleaner crack dens in movies!!

How this hotel is even allowed on this website is beyond me. The staff even said 'this isn't a nice place to stay' when I arrived, the condition of the room was disgusting, there was faeces in the toilet, toilet roll stuck to the ahoer chrtain, thick dust and splats and marks on every wall and surface. Safe to say i did mot complete my stay there, when I say stay away I mean STAY AWAY.

The room was covered in spider webs and there was a cockroach in the bathroom, the staff was nice but stay away at all cost
