Extremely Disappointed – Misleading Information and No Accountability I rarely leave negative reviews, but my experience with this property was unacceptable. Prior to booking, I contacted the hotel and was assured that street parking would be available. This was a critical factor in my decision to stay here, as I was traveling with luggage and needed nearby access. When I arrived, there was absolutely no street parking available within walking distance of the property. I drove around for an extended period with no success. This made the property completely inaccessible to me. Despite explaining the situation and requesting a refund, I was told the booking was non-refundable and no exceptions would be made, even though the issue stemmed from false information provided by the property itself. As a result, I was forced to scramble to find last-minute emergency accommodation, at my own expense. This experience was incredibly stressful and disappointing. I expected more accountability and basic honesty from a wotif provider. I would not recommend this property to anyone.

Property not wheelchair friendly! Couldn't check in when I arrived after travelling via train and exhausted. When I did come back, still couldn't check in as staff were on their "lunch break". not safe to use kettle in the room due to lack of power points. when I did finally get to lay down for a rest, workman was using a damn power saw outside my window. Had to share a bathroom with the whole floor!

Given the price tag, it is in my opinion a perfect choice! The room is small, but had all we needed, including a mini balcony and a bathroom with window! Only mood killer: the lady at reception when we checked in. We knew we were too early, but felt treated like invaders and an inconvenience, just because we asked, if we could leave the bags, till check in time. Very unfriendly in all she said. All other staff were very friendly and welcoming!

The property offers good rooms, however they are a 2 storey walk up, the shared bathroom is missing multiple tiles and there is no bath mat provided only towels. Found it easy to get to the hospital from here. Reception area looks and feels much better than the room / bathroom.
