On arrival despite being advised that there was parking there was about 4 spaces which were all taken. It was 10pm and nowhere else anywhere near to park so I ended up giving up and driving home and didn't stay

Very disappointed!! Expected hotel quality accommodation, for the price, but got poor hostel quality. Needs updating,quite shabby, faces onto a use road. Despite requesting a ground floor room, stating poor mobility, I was allocated a 1st floor room up a 15 stair flight of stairs!! Advisory/info email sent after my window to cancel.!! Bathroom was adequate, but shower had no slip mat or grab rails!! Health &safety matter, along with stiff & heavy front door, pretty dangerous in an emergency evacuation situation. Weird system of No staff on site, key safe system for room key!! just an emergency/ support phone number!! No useful help given when contacted about a relatively minor problem, faulty TV. Left to sort it out myself! Eventually discovered the cleaning staff had left it unplugged, despite being informed by the support person I spoke to on the phone, that the cleaning staff ALWAYS tested all electrical equipment before leaving!! He told me there was nothing he could about my problem, “as all the staff had gone home”!!! Not an encouraging thought if anything serious happened during the night. Thankfully I was only booked in for 1 night. Wi-Fi was poor. The kitchen was on the ground floor, meaning negotiating that flight of stairs if I needed more than a cuppa. On the plus side, the bed was comfortable. As you may suspect I will not be booking again, in the future!!

The breakfast was was left in the room . 4 slices of bread for 2 persons. The mattress on both beds were absolutely useless , could feel the springs when you sleeping, I think the owner needs to replace the mattress, talking to other guests , they also commented the same !!

Clean, comfortable room, with enough food for a good breakfast. A little out of the centre of Lincoln, maybe 1 mile, which if your happy with then this property offers excellent value for money.

Excellent value for money. Comunal kitchen so great ifvyou would like to grab a take away from the many places around the corner. Only thing i would say is a lot of road noise in the room however they do provide earplugs which help. Overall very happy.

Perfect stay

My husband and I stayed here for a night for our anniversary. Couldn’t have picked anywhere better. It was perfect. We could walk into the city for a meal and then drinks on the brayford after and a leisurely walk back. Would highly recommend

Simply awesome

Gosh I paid £100 per night for the two previous hotels and they gave nothing except coffee and one of them was a premier executive room. But the generosity and attention to detail in this hotel was staggering. Honestly I was truly impressed at how the owner went out of his way to make everything perfect. And for an extremely exceptional price. Thank you very much for a superb stay. Will certainly return and recommend u anytime.
