Great location and within walking distance of a lot of stuff! Only complaint is the room was slightly dirty upon arrival. The housekeeping left behind used cleaning towels, a glove IN the toilet bowl, and the shower had stuff from the previous people left behind. We did get breakfast down the street through the hotel each morning which was great!

This was disappointing: I had to chase Brim to pay for the booking, the rooms were dusty and shabby, chipped paintwork, stained carpets and torn pictures, I had no hot water on the first night and the communal coffee machine ran out. Customers need to understand that this is very basic, not enough storage in some rooms (when other, larger rooms were available), no hair dryer etc.

Breakfast was good, maybe the best part of this property. Shower was old and gross. Guest room and breakfast room are very dark. Probably by keeping it dark, they can hide some dirtiness of the property? There’s a reason why it’s super affordable compared to other places around the area.

Contacting the property was very difficult, with no response prior to 3:19pm on the day of check in. We had reached out asking about parking, etc. We did not receive check in instructions on time (check in was at 3 but did not hear from the property until 3:19). The “breakfast” was non-existent. The property told me it would be from 7-10 and even sent us a voucher, but when we showed up at the dining room at 7:37, the lights were off and the tables empty. The fire alarm panel was going off regularly the entire time we were there (not the actual alarm, just the panel was beeping). We could hear it from our room. There were also a couple spots of mold in the shower.

The building and rooms are old. They are renovated, but in a thick coat of paint over cracks in the wall type renovations. The lighting was horrible, even with all the lights turned on. The shared bathrooms aren’t that nice either, and the toilets somehow managed to be dirty every time I had to use it. The only good thing about this place was the breakfast.

First I got the wrong room, which can happen, but then, the new room I got had a big cloak problem, and the smell was horrible. The rooms are more than old and not recommended at all. I seem this hotel is just used for laundering money (look up the owner)
