Excellent hotel. Only complaint would be the bed. Asked for a double, which was two singles together, but they didn’t stay together and we were constantly having to push them back together which was a little annoying.

Assigned Accessible Room and Tired Bathroom

Stay was fine. We'd been put in an accessible room. I was a little surprised having booked far in advance and I would have appreciated being told at check in. The room, in particular the bathroom, looked pretty tired.

Amy

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Very poor experience - dirty, smelly, overpriced

On checking in, the bedroom smelled absolutely horrendous. I don't even know of what but it was awful. Reception kindly moved us to another room. However the towels were dirty and found a pube on one, the sink plug hole was grubby, and in the morning found there was no shower gel in the bottle. We did get replacement towels when requested. However between the issues, and the gloomy decor, it did not feel at all worth the £160 pricetag for a Thursday night. Would not return.

Bad initial impression but room was clean.

Disappointed when checking in to see a guy sitting on a bench with no shirt on. Initial impressions were that he was homeless or a drunk guy. I may be wrong on both counts but it made we seriously wonder if this was the sort of establishment that I wanted to stay at. Room was clean but decor looked like it was designed by a child.

Good location for my business trip. Room is nice if a bit dated (Artex on the walls). The breakfast food is fine but the space is the most cramped I have ever experienced in the UK. They need to do more to make the experience less stressful. Extending hours to 6.30 am or earlier would help. Posters in the lifts warned that it would be busy from 7 AM - 8AM. Sure enough, as soon as it opened at 7 AM, the place was packed.

Clean, friendly staff. Good tea and coffee facilities in the room although they only provide assam tea not English breakfast. Good variety at the breakfast; continental and a small cooked; bacon, sausage, beans, scrambled egg, mushrooms and hash browns. Rooms are a good size. Bathroom is small but fine for a night/few days. Really good location. You have to park in the nearby multi-storey, grab a ticket and get it validated at the Ibis and then you only pay £10 at the machine in the car park before you leave. Overall a nice hotel
