Liked: Cleanliness
The room was average. The beds need attention or replacement, as the springs are worn out. We could clearly hear noise from the opposite room even with the doors closed, which made the stay quite noisy. I wouldn’t recommend this place for couples or families. The staff were good, and all the in-room amenities were satisfactory. However, the tap water was not drinkable, as it had a rusty taste, and the towels appeared yellowish for some reason. I felt its pricey for this kind of hotel. We choose this hotel because it was near to my sisters home during Christmas.

This is a pretty run down place with rotten windows, cheap toiletries and drinks. The staff are friendly and the rooms clean with the highest water pressure I've ever known. Breakfast offered a good choice. There was a fridge and microwave in the room which was unexpected and they offered a reasonably priced set of simple meals. I think there a probably a lot of workmen stay here.

Unfortunately, the rooms aren’t soundproof at all. You can easily hear people talking, phones ringing, and doors opening and closing next door. It gets really annoying and makes it hard to relax.

Large ground floor Club room at front of the building, parking area outside large windows was noisy plus 24/7 lights from busy main road. Close to reception. Room a bit shabby but airy and warm from easily controlled radiators. Comfortable clean beds. Very small shower and toilet - could do with updating. Toilet seat was loose, needs repair, could be hazardous for older person like me. Reception staff were very helpful and friendly on aŕrival, showed me a couple of rooms but the lift was not working so couldn't look upstairs. Buffet breakfast choices excellent, cereals, fruits, yoghurt, toast etc.juices, tea, coffee, oatmilk. Full English 😋 freshly cooked.

You get what you pay for

Ultimately you get what you pay for. I stayed in room 200. The room was clean and the bed comfortable but overall the decor was dated. Not a problem for me as I was only staying 1 night. One think it is lacking is a bedside table which was annoying but not a major issue. This is an excellent location if you are visiting your child at Reading University (as I was) because it is a 15 minute walk, or 5 minute drive away. There are all the amenities you need. Kettle, fridge, microwave, plates, bowls, cutlery and a hairdryer. I didnt have the breakfast so I can't comment on that.
