Not as good as normal.

Normally stay here when at Lincoln but this time the cleanliness was quite poor (one towel and a mysterious stain on it). Room on 6th floor was quite noisy as well.

Good Value Stopover

Good value stay. Room clean and comfortable double bed. Included breakfast was adequate (would preferred fried eggs and mushrooms with cooked breakfast). No vegetarian option (sausage etc..) or signs to say could request this? Hotel is in good location to city centre re 10 min walk. Would stay again as good value for our 1 night stay over.

Recommend this hotel

This a regular place I stay when on company business to Lincoln. It's a great location for me, away from the town centre but also a nice walk into town in the evenings. All staff are great, courteous and friendly. Rooms are always comfy and well kept for my usual 4 night stay. Breakfast is always the same but plentiful, fresh and just enough to get me going in the mornings.

It was my husband's 78th birthday and I requested a room over looking the Brayford Marina because we used to spend happy hours boating on that part of the river, and I knew he would have enjoyed it, the receptionist said they did't have one available. They gave us another room, when we got their I unlocked the door and realised it was somebody else's room when I saw the coat and his bag hanging up and the bed turned down and the man was in the bathroom thank god, it was very embarrassing and a big shock. We went back down to the reception and I told the receptionist what had happened, which everybody in the area thought was hilarious, and we where offered a upgrade over looking the car park. WAS'NT HAPPY
