lovely staff and decent room, good location. I appreciate it's not necessarily something the hotel can control but there was a ridiculous amount of noise coming from the room opposite, I won't elaborate what kind but it was all night and the morning too...

Liked: Staff & service
This is pretty central, train station 10 minutes walk, 15 minutes walk into the town. Property looks ok from the outside and so does reception. Staff were lovely when we checked in. The bedrooms on the other hand are dated and in need of a revamp. We had a dripping shower/bath for the whole weekend we were there. There was no room between the single beds. The room felt too small for a pull out bed too. So 3 Adults was a little cramped.

Outdated and smelly

The hotel was old and outdated, stayed in many Best Western hotels BUT nothing like this one. Strange smell in the room, found hair in the carpet when it was supposed to have been cleaned (photo attached) Mentioned this when checking out but receptionist not really interested.

The room was tiny and in immediate need of refurbishment. There was a dangerous piece of old cabinet work jutting out from the wall with a very faded 'mind your head' sticker on it. The shower was good but above a bath rather than a cubicle. The room was tolerable for a one night stay but no longer. The staff were friendly, and the breakfast excellent for this type of hotel.

Needs attention.

This hotel is very very tired. Kitted out in wipe down surfaces instead of soft furnishings. Paintwork peeling. Mold in the bathroom. No sockets bedside and the single USB socket was not working. Bed was comfortable. Staff were a delight. Also we were downgraded in our rooms from those we booked without any notification.

The room was perfect. It was clean and spacious. Bathroom was clean. The breakfast was very minimal. The only fruit available was either an apple or a banana there was no natural yoghurt only flavoured yoghurt pots. They just wasn’t much selection.

Excellent service. Would use again.

Excellent quality hotel for a good price. It's a little out of the city but close to Ponds Forge, but this is reflected in the price. The room was a good size, clean with a good space to work with a comfortable chair. The bathroom was a good size, clean and easy to use. The bed fit me (6' 3") well and was comfortable, the pillows were comfortable too. The staff were very friendly and helpful. If I am back in Sheffield I will certainly look at staying here again.
