The hotel services the room every 7 days unless you pay extras. There was no toiletries, the decor was tired, staff in need of training on what good customer service looks like. and cleaniness was definitely dubious.

Would recommend

Overall, a positive experience. Although check in was slow and our room was not ready, we were accommodated nicely with a very quiet room, thank you to the man on reception who calmly sorted this. It was not nice or professional to hear him being told off for how he dealt with an issue with an other guest.

Great Location, Stunning Views, and Excellent Staf

⸻ Great location with a stunning view of the river, and a beautiful little park and village nearby with lovely architecture. It’s only about a 25-minute walk from Waverley Station, which was very convenient. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful – from the reception desk to the cleaning staff, everyone was excellent. The hotel itself was very clean and we had a really good stay. Some areas, such as the toilets, are starting to look a little dated, but overall it was well kept and spotless. Absolutely satisfied with the experience and would happily stay again.

Room had notes left from previous customer which made me question how thorough the clean had been. Sink was blocked. Carpet was dirty. Hairs in the bath. Iron had burnt on residue which ruined my dress.

Stayed in the windowless room - the sheets had a suspension red coloured mark on them, yellow stains on the floor around the toilet (which I wouldn’t normally care about). But the constant banging of doors that felt like they were right next to our heads as we “slept” was too much.

DO NOT BOOK

Everything was so terrible we are so disappointed, the hotel is in very bad shape, old, dirty the crew are not well trained, they are so rude and unfriendly, the food service was so basic and poor, it was the WORST experience that we have ever had in our entire life, so so BAD, DO NOT BOOK at this hotel, not even for free I will stay again over there. No windows (I am claustrophobic) clogged sink, no room service unless you stay more that 7 days (I was told that), broken pieces in the room, dirty hallways, manager never available to speak with us. We have to grab towels from the front desk. Terrible everything

I liked that this hotel was not in the heart of the city so it was quieter (as well as more affordable). It also was easy to get rides from and back to the hotel.
