Can only base this on my 1 night stay in room 6. Single bed was child’s top bunk bed. I’m a 59 year old 6 foot man not a 10 year old girl. Couldn’t get my stretch, bed was too short and very uncomfortable and enclosed.
Parking was also a nightmare. Coming in late as I did you have to park streets away and walk to the guest house.

The property was ideally located.
There was someone else’s underwear and clothes in the wardrobe.
The cutlery wasn’t clean.

The location was great
When I got there the velux window was left open & the radiator doesn't work so it was very cold. I went to make a cuppa & found it had been used as an ashtray & not cleaned out & there was lots of banging & doors slamming until after 1am & then it started again after 6am 🤬 I'm very glad I was only there for 2 days. Also you can only stand up in 2ft of the room & can't even sit up on the edge of the bed because of the slanted roof.

The room was clean and well presented.
Shared shower rooms and toilets.
It can feel a bit scary as a female when you have a male showering in the next shower to yours.

Free wifi but this is the standard now when it comes to short term paid accommodation.
I booked this property as it advertised that it had parking. When I messaged the owners regarding parking they informed me it was limited and it was on a first come, first served basis. The property has two parking spaces, I personally think you need to have more if you're advertising that parking is on offer. The surrounding streets are all residents only parking so I needed to park a ten minute walk away from the property.
My other issue was my bed, I was put in the gable room where it was a small single bed in a cramped space which wasn't ideal but I could live with. On my first night's sleep I could feel the mattress springs digging into my back. When it took all the bedding off I discovered that the mattress had been put onto the bed upside down, so I had to flip and remake my bed (mattress protector, electric blanket and fitted sheet). Housekeeping should have noticed this and fixed it when setting up the room.
Over all not a pleasant experience and would not recommend staying here to others.

Property’s location is very accessible to high street. The room was adequate for the price. Central heating and settings is available to a visitor’s room and comfort. Old style property that is modern and clean. Parking availability. Recommend.
Visitors might have a problem with shared bathroom. I had no issues with it.

It was clean
Despite no-smoking policy there was a strong smell of smoke in the hallways which permeated in the room.
Made us worry about the fire safety as no other escape from a third floor property we didn’t stay.
We alerted the owner but no recompense was offered.

Was a lovely hotel. Owners were lovely and very helpful as we checked in late at night, and they explained exactly where they were and how to check in. Rooms were lovely. Had everything we needed, even had a fridge in the room too which was perfect for our drinks and milk for baby. Booked and within the hour we had travelled there and were in for the night. Would recommend and stay again. Thank you

Very comfortable room, very clean. Convenient location for buses, coaches, especially as we were not using a car.
When we found the bedroom to be chilly - for whatever reason - our complaint was met immediately with the supply of a heater.
We knew we wouldn't have en suite arrangements, but would have appreciated separate shower and toilet facilities, rather than the mixed-gender ones.

There was nothing wrong with the location until I checked the bed where we could see these bugs. I had to book an other hotel 1h away , couldnt risk it to sleep there.

Perfect. Check in a doddle with simple instructions and owner very friendly and helpful. Clean comfortable room and bed, welcome towels and slippers a lovely touch. Great shared facilities inc microwave, toaster etc in a cosy little kitchen. Best shower I’ve ever had in a shared facility! Terrific value for money. Thanks Keith!
Would be great if you could get to the bench at the back of the property without having to go out the front door, but I get that the rear of the building is used for cleaning stores etc

It was clean and functional and had everything we needed.
Parking our car was a little tricky: there’s not much space. However the owner was very responsive and helpful and we managed.

The room was in an excellent condition, though for toilet I had to go to the upper floor.
The toilet was shared and on the next floor, but this was expected and made the property more affordable for booking.

Location, cleanliness, facilities, price
The key box was often left unlocked exposing the keys, the main door was often left adjar which obviously meant anyone could gain access although the door.

Impressed with the cleanliness. Having access to a kitchen (air fryer, microwave). Cosy room with a mini fridge (a brilliant addition)and a great bed. I appreciated having a space to park my car. Prompt communication from the owner when I needed to communicate with him.
I was not keen on the shared bathroom, even though I did not encounter any other guests when I used this area.
Would upgrade to en suite if I booked in again.

Parking was limited, though I had a space. Someone locked the door whilst showering so no one could use the toilets at that time

Very clean and comfortable
The bathroom consisted of 2 toilet compartments and 2 shower cubicles so felt a bit vulnerable as male and female together, there was a bolt on the door which helped.

Quite dingy.
Mattress should have been replaced a decade ago.
Shower doesn’t drain.
Front door to the property doesn’t lock.
