It could do with a refurb but the building does have character!

Great staff and a nice friendly feel in the bar. Bed and pillow were comfortable which was a welcome surprise.
Very tired decor and no mattress or pillow protectors. .i Did see it was on photos but really not difficult to make small changes. The extractor fan was soooooooo noisy and came on with light so was horrendous during night. It needs a good hoover out for dust. No plug in sink and tiled floor in bathroom was freezing so wear socks or slippers

Rooms have women’s names instead of numbers. Friendly staff
Bought three rounds exactly the same but the price changed three times which was disappointing so probs best to remember what you’re charging next time guys or someone’s pockets need checking the end of the night

The staff were helpful and it was easy to find. Not far from metro centre and taxi to utilita arena £11. Free parking. Bedding was clean.
The hotel is very shabby and not in a charming way. I honestly think that the nightly charge was at least 50% higher than it warranted.

Overall, the room was pretty okay.
The hotel was fairly noisy. There was a lot of noise from the hallway when people open and close the doors and traffic outside in the street, The biggest problem I think was the window in the room didn't close completely fully. So there was a cold draft and it did hit zero and it was snowing.

Parking was easily available and accessible
The main issue was the cleanliness. It wasn't clean at all.
The whole building keeps vibrating even when a small car passes by the road. Just imagine how I felt when a large vehicle passed by the road.
Poor lighting.
The shower system was out of order

The hotel was welcoming, and all of the staff were friendly. Nice bar with a pool table downstairs. It was good value for money in my opinion. Would stay here again if I end up in the area.

The staff are very friendly and willing to help.
Unfortunately this property is in urgent need of modernisation. The room looked very worn with repairs needed.
Bedding and towels was clean ,however ,room requires a deep clean.

Nestled in a far quiet corner of Gateshead
They give room girls names not just numbers which I found very unique
Staff attentive and helpful
Can get bus to Newcastle which was helpful next to it loads of time availability
Tv was sticking out the wall
Maybe recommend a fan for the room as it was boiling hot

Value for money. OK for a night stay.
Cleanliness, wall fixing need to be improved. The floor shakes when HGVs pass by.

Spacious room, with nice bed. Staff were friendly and very helpful. They did not serve food but were able to direct us to a take away.
Bathroom was very dated and in need of an update.

Budget hotel, so no frills, but room was clean, bed was comfortable, shower perfectly acceptable, host was pleasant.
The hotel does describe itself as a B&B but the second B, as in breakfast, was not provided, which was a little disappointing.

A budget cosy clean room... on a busy road, some details could be improved like a black out curtain and a safety hand-grip if you take a shower/bath. Bed comfy enough and plenty of shelves and pillows to choose from. We had a beer in their full-of-character pub. Check out 10.30 is perfect. Parking space can get busy, we're lucky. Rooms have names.
Floor creaking everywhere and banging of beer barrels at 7.30am, inner-walls pipes noises. Other banging noises. Then, noises of a compressor..., then some music... and it's on a busy road.

Nothing to like!
The place is run down and dirty. The beds are stained, and the furniture is broken. The view is out to broken beds, signs, and shopping trollies. Having spoken to a local, I learned that the place is used as a halfway house for ex-offenders. Yes, it's cheap, but it's cheap for a reason. We arrived, about turned, and left again! We didn't even stay the night.
