Olympic Lodge - Terrible 😞

Nobody on reception, once I found it. Key card didn’t work so had to go back again and guess what! Yep nobody on reception again, room smelt, is very basic, no cups or cutlery, tv didn’t work, no air conditioning, bathroom dirty, looks nothing like the picture, paid £80.00 for something that is only worth £40.00 overall extremely disappointing

Cold Water!!!!

No hot water. Aylesbury is an ancient town and the decor at this 'hotel' lives up to that although I'm sure even the Saxons had hot water. There's never any space in the car park. For what you get for your money, the lodge is extremely expensive. The staff at check in (at the leisure centre) are friendly and helpful. But there are no staff in the Lodge itself, except the night porter who seems a bit glum and unsupported. But just to reiterate... You can't have a hotel without hot water! Cold showers are not my friend!!

Disappointed

Like a very old travelodge . Bedding and towels clean but don’t think room saw a vac all week and sink etc didn’t get wiped down. Receptionist didn’t want to be there unapproachable and short with answers. Def not a £54 a nite for room only,£30 max ! Says use of pool etc but always classes on so limited slots when allowed in.

I'd not stay again.

We were put in the wrong room to start with, it was only once I'd called down to reception to say our bed isn't made do we have to make it ourselves did the receptionist say oh I've put you in the wrong room. We then had to go down to collect the correct room key. The shower wasn't very good with not much hot water.

Cheap, clean but noisy!

One night stop for sporting event. Rooms was large and clean and excellent value at £40 for the night. The issue we had was the noise from the other guests ie doors banging, shouting, music. We complained at 2.30am and eventually reception came and sorted it out. Next day we discovered police had been called due to an altercation and people smoking dubious substances outside other rooms!!

Working away from home this is ideal as its next to the gym and swimming pool so plenty to do in the evening rather than just sit in a hotel room watching TV.
