Give it a miss
Very tired room. Single glazed windows which were very dirty. Really thin pillows.damp stains around the windows. No tea at breakfast. Didn’t help that I was stopped by a chap as I was arriving. Asked me if I was staying there and told me he’d checked in then straight out. Showed me pictures of dried vomit in the corner of the room and dirty stained sheets.

Jesus.
Make sure you pack an oxygen mask. The whole floor on the fourth was shocking, damp, freezing cold, rotten. The staff tried their best. Someone was moving furniture all night above our room and it weren’t no regular headboard bashing !

It's fine as long as you aren't overprecious
Room was fairly basic but fine if you don't mind the shower leaking onto the floor but it wasn't that bad. There was a bit of a draught coming under the door but it was officially a storm that night. The corridors were also very tired looking and needed a good paint but I wasn't sleeping, eating or sitting in them and so it wasn't an issue for me. Bottom line is that I would go there again

Not nice. Dirty, sick in the lift, blood on a door. Fire alarm constantly going off, no fire. No apology when checking out even tho alarm was still going off. Ridiculous

Only Book Here If You're Desperate
Bed was uncomfortable; I felt every spring in the mattress. Wifi was advertised in-room but only one of my devices could even detect it. The room was a freezer box with a non-working radiator; I complained and eventually got a space heater -- they refused to change rooms. I described my experience to my Uber driver when I left and he informed me that the Rowton is a place where people tend to go for a few hours, not a whole night. The place definitely had that feel.

Bathroom sink blocked. Sink stopper was in a locked position and I had to pry it apart with metal keys. Fan in bathroom was constantly on even half an hour after light was off. Hair dryer died with excruciating rasp. Otherwise everything fine.

Decent for price
Reception looks clean and nice but as soon as you enter the lift and make your way to the room, its whole new world. Overall decent for the price I paid. Good for using to just sleep.

Wish I’d slept in the car!
Second time staying here.....and oh my days, this time I wish I’d slept in the car!! Room was freezing, so cold that we had to get under the covers BEFORE we went out to get warm. Heating was just a small electric radiator that kept turning off. Reception Staff wasn’t interested. Asked for more coffee to keep warm and got told no by rude receptionist. People on landing standing round whilst the place smelt like weed!! I know it’s cheap but wow, don’t even get heating!
