The breakfast is it standard, not a buffet but you have no choice than to eat what they give you. One slice of bread with one spoon of bake beans, one eeg and one sussage. That’s it and you can’t ask for more.
Very bad, better not to have breakfast than to have what’s not going to be enough as an adult.
The breakfast and it loads of stairs with no lift

Great central location. Good property security, felt safe.
The hotel seems very run down. My room was small and poorly laid out and poor design of the bathroom made it difficult for a larger person to access

This hotel has seen better days. It is very tired and has no facilities. The lady who checked me in was very helpful, even allowing me to park in their private garage. Other than that there is no parking. The room was not large but was adequate. Bed a bit lumpy.
Couldn't find any staff in the morning. Needs completely redecorating.

I thought the hotel did exactly what it said on the tin. It was a budget purchase and it delivered a budget product: no complaints at this end. I got what I expected and, in truth, £40 with breakfast and a smiling host was bang on!
It was a budget purchase so I expected little more than I got

In all honesty the only thing we truly liked about our stay was leaving after the first night and find alternative accommodation for the rest of the business trip to Gainsborough.
The hotel was dirty, cold and ill equipped. One room had empty wine bottles left by a previous guest, used cotton buds and dirt in a drawer, the hostess tray was filthy, there appeared to be blood on the ceiling and it lacked basic amenities such as a hand towel, spare toilet paper and hair dryer. The other room had stained bedding, was missing a shower curtain, had a toilet brush with no holder on the floor and was cold. Both rooms did not appear to been cleaned properly in a long time.
The hallways and stairs were run down, dirty and cold.
The dining room was particularly cold to the point that coats were required. All the equipment seemed to be out of order and had been replaced with a domestic toaster and kettle. The units were grubby and in disrepair.
One of our group braved breakfast that consisted of a bag of bread for eveyone to rummage through for toast making. Margerine scopped into a mug, no jams etc, and the requested poached eggs came out fried and tasted of stale, tainted oil.
We checked out after the first night and found alternative accommodation as we could not face 3 further nights in what was the worst hotel accommodation we have ever experienced.

We would like to say that it was a great disappointment from the pictures on booking.com it is a run down hotel. The room was clean and the bed was clean and the bathroom looked brand new.
We know we payed a budget price, the place was cold no bar or restaurant. Car park was not available,we had to park out on a disabled parking area,
4.0 / 10.0
Bed was clean and comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Cheap.
The hotel is very delapidated. All the communal areas are dirty with scuffed and marked walls.
In the room it was the same. We had to wipe down all the surfaces. The furniture seemed to be from charity shops. There were no bedside lamps so it was just two very bright ceiling lights, or nothing.
In the bathroom, you have to fill the bath from the shower hose as the lever that switches from bath to shower didn't work. The sink tap dripped audibly.
There were no toiletries and only one towel each.
If we'd arrived earlier, we'd have cut our losses and gone to the Travelodge around the corner for the same price.

Staff were very helpful, parking was secure and location was central
5.0 / 10.0
Easy to find.
Car park was full when we arrived so defeated the purpose of booking this particular hotel. No duvet or pillow cases on bedding just sheets. Dirty marks on walls and toilet brush just sat on side behind toilet and not in correct toilet brush bowl.

Room and Hotel needed updating and decorating. The hotel looked from the interior as if it wasn't used. Items were stored in unused rooms making the first impression not good.

No breakfast offered
The secure parking wasn't secure. It was in a dark, unlit recess between two buildings, there was lots of junk in there, I didn't feel that my car would have been particularly safe there.
The reception was locked even though I arrived at my pre-arranged time. I had to phone someone to let me in. I waited a few minutes, it didn't seem like my room was ready. The whole place had the feel of a homeless hostel. My room wasn't particularly clean, I certainly wouldn't have used the kettle or glasses in the room. The net curtains were dirty.
I didn't even put my bags down, I turned round, handed the keys back in, and left. I would rather do a 2 and a half hour commute each day than stay there.
I requested a refund, but I don't think that booking.com will even entertain the idea. I might change to try a different booking platform in future.

Nothing really
Waiting outside the hotel late at night waiting to be let ...then waiting another 20 mins at reception waiting for a key fob ..I was the only person in the hotel but was given a room up the top and furthest room down the corridor..the room had really tacky old decor ..shower was random hot and cold ..made a cup of coffee.and had to hold the on button down until it boiled inspection of the pat test 3 yrs out of date ..stale old coffee sachets and sugar ...and the noise levels coming from the room next door ..I'm guessing friends of the reception guy using the room ..screaming shouting banging the door every time they went in and out the door ...I banged their door gone 11.30 pm to ask them to quieten down but no response..there was no receptionist to complain to too.. so come 01.30 am I got so fed up with noise I packed my things and left ..the most horrible experience of my 20 years plus of traveling on the road for work avoid this place
