Rooms were satisfactory good value
Service was well below par. Only two towels for four people. No one on site at reception. Put through multiple people on the phone who passed onto the next person. No one showed up to reception. Very poor

3.0 / 10.0
Location was fantastic for where we needed to be.
We were actually sent to another motel as the owner said the room that we had booked was trashed by the previous customers. Turns out the same story was also told to a friend travelling with me on a seperate booking. So the owner wouldn’t have known….Coincidence ??? The place was dirty and smelled of cigarette smoke in the public area. My room smelled like an ashtray while my friend found a large kitchen knife under the bed. I think we made a mistake when booking and accidentally typed accommodation for crack dealers in the search bar
9.0 / 10.0
Everything. Room was as described and was ready when we arrived (I by bus and my sisters by car) at the appointed time. Everything was immaculate and the very willing manager supplied a couple of requested items at once. We were able to access the city/restaurants/gallery etc easily on foot or by car. The unit was comfortable, quiet, well-equipped, well-priced and very clean.
A hairdryer would have been useful but that is a very minor matter.

It is hard to think of things I liked as my booking in Abbey motor lodge has been cancelled by its management 2 hours before our check-in time. This is understandable considering they had unforeseen circumstances. However, I was not offered an option to cancel and re-book somewhere else instead. They rebooked us into its sister lodge, called 136 on Bealey motor lodge, which is located in the same street as Abbey lodge. I had to pay for 2 extra nights which I did not end up staying as they refused to provide us any form of refund when I was not happy about the new accomodation that they placed us in.
Unhelpful management staff who does not listen to customers' concerns and feedback. In future I will be making sure to look carefully and not book accomodation ran by this company.

5.0 / 10.0
Location was great. Room had good heating and given some nights had lows of -4 we were plenty warm enough.
The shower tray was cracked in numerous places and can pinch your skin in the cracks.
Towel rail was detaching from the wall. This was fixed after alerting the owner so impressed that was dealt with promptly. Some of the plates were still dirty from previous quests.
There seemed to be some people living in some rooms, possibly used as emergency housing?
10.0 / 10.0
The rooms were spacious and all the facilities, equipment, furniture were very clean. Everything was neat and exceptionally tidy with great comfort. The location was great as it was in the central of the city.
