The hallway between the room and the main hallway smelt extremely bad, the TV is small and half the programme was off the screen, one of the bed side limps didn't work, neither did the remote for the TV and the plug for the washing basin didn't fit. There were no instructions as to how to use the heat pump, what channels the TV has and the wifi is a joke, 512MB for 24 hours.

Overall it was ok. The bed was very hard and the pillows even harder...take your own! The shower water pressure was great. The car parking was a joke. Don't bother. The car parks are in twos with concrete walls on either side and if you park your car next to the car beside you, you will need to stagger the front of your car with the mid point of the other car then both drivers will need to climb from their front seats through to the back seats and out the back door. Not ideal.

Friendly staff and tidy rooms. TV reception is a bit hit and miss and no guide to know when things are on. With no gym onsite you can use Jetts down the road - but only if its a staffed day at Jetts, so some days out of luck. Really close to everything you would need for your stay.

Nobody to meet you on arrival. There was a sign to say to use the intercom, but there wasn't one. Phoned to get directions to find the lockbox around the corner. Parking was shocking. I believe they are relocating, so that will be much better in the future

Hi Ange, Thank you for staying with us at central Square Hotel. The Intercom it is on the right hand side and it was there in the last 12 years. In regards the car park, our building do have a valid and actual Warrant of Fitness so the car park spaces and the access are due to standards and regulations. We hope these will not alter your willingness to stay with us again.

Hi Cheryl, Many thanks for your feedback. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay. We are sorry you didn't have a comfortable sleep. Unfortunately bed firmness is a personal preference, however we do have a number of softer mattresses and will make note of this for future bookings. We hope to welcome you back in the near future. Kind regards,

Our last 2 visits, we have felt the standard of cleaning had gone down. Bathroom has always been very clean BUT saw dust around TV area and last visit toe - nails on bedroom floor. Did not feel room had been vacuumed !!!!! have filled out feed back form in room and on line and not heard back yet. If this minor but HORRIBLE problem was sorted then I would still recommend staying here.
