How anyone has rated this excellent is beyond me. You get what you pay for, but I’m not sure even $60 a night was worth it. As a solo traveller, I felt someone could have just knocked the door down and it was hard to lock. The rooms were horrible, no working tv and holes in the wall with bugs. I understand there is a refurbishment happening which is clearly needed.
I paid for a room with a shower, didn’t get that (seems to be a common occurrence) When questioned the man at the bar he stated when I booked it there must have not been a space or some excuse along those lines. There was no point questioning it further, he wasn’t interested and said it was booked out due to running festival. I would have gone elsewhere and requested my money back but there was no where else to go.
I understand hotel pub rooms are never amazing, and there was a shared bathroom which I knew on booking. I just don’t expect to pay to stay anywhere and feel so dirty and unsafe. I didn’t use the shared shower- I think I would have left feeling dirtier than before I used it.
Convenient location- the one and only positive.
