Negative Reviews
negative:
Not the best area
It's only a short walk from many local sites but make no mistake that this hotel is in a bit of a run-down area. Some guests felt uncomfortable walking around the local neighborhood while others found that there was very little to do nearby other than Gogglebox.
negative:
A bad apple at the front desk
Some of the people that work here are friendly, but all it takes is one or two bad apples to ruin it for everyone. Guests found that their problems were ignored by certain members of staff and that some were even outright rude to them.

Cleanliness issues
The rooms are all carpeted which usually adds a nice homely feel to a hotel room. Unfortunately, though, the stains ruin this feeling. The whole place needs a good bit of work to bring it up to the basic standard expected of any hotel.
