Disappointed as thought it was a 3 star hotel. The receptionist was very friendly. We came back from the venue just before 10pm and the man on reception said the bar was closing in 10 mins , so we left. The room was very disappointing. Very tired, no glasses in bathroom , no shampoo or shower jel and no hairdryer. The bath was chipped and discoloured on the base. The slip proof bathroom floor was coming away from the walls and the walls were that thin, you could hear your neighbours as if they were in the same room. The pillows badly needed replacing as very flat and crumpled. The brown blanket throw was very old . I must say the bedding was clean and the bed was comfortable.

We stayed over attending a wedding . The room was comfortable snd clean . The staff twere pleasant thoughtful and nothing was too much trouble . The food was excellent , although it was a wedding breakfast. The only grouse was the tea bags . We are Pg tips and it was Tetleys , so bring your own if you like a good brew ..

The reception staff were very polite. It just seems to be stuck in the 1990s. The room was freezing. The heating didn’t work. The photographs did not represent the room at all. My room cost way over a hundred and less than one fifty pounds for two nights In Stoke. On a Tuesday. I realise that it’s not a huge amount of money. But, to be staying in what looked like a 1950s Communist Russia flat, compared to the two phones at the bottom - that are from the hotels website, is just not on. The bed was ridiculously unforgiving. I’m well aware of how much I paid and therefore it’s not going to be The Savoy, but don’t advertise it as a bright, sun dappled Disney paradise, when it’s not that at all.

No heating.we were given a noisy old fan heater. Cobwebs on lamp shades. 5 flights of stairs to get to room and no lifts. The whole place needs a refurb.

The hotel we felt was a bit tied. Had a problem with the heated towel rail which I made them aware of. Staff were ok and the parking was good. It was conveniently situated being in walking distant of the town.

It's a cool property, but poor staff communication. I paid for breakfast but was not told breakfast ends by 9am, unlike in other hotels where breakfast extends to 10am. I was also issued the wrong receipt from a rude receptionist.

The staff were all amazing! Full of local knowledge and really helpful. My room wasn't one from the website, clean but basic. Nothing to complain about for sure. Only tiny issue is the car parking. I had to park away from the hotel by day, and got the final space at night. Again - not a disaster. Would for sure stay here again

Great for the price (£70 for the night). The wall's have absolutely no sound proof so can hear everything next door. The room itself is nice and spacious, with coffee etc. The cooked breakfast was a highlight and would give 5* for this. Was 9.50 a person and included tea/ coffee and orange and apple juice. Would fully recommend to anyone okay with being to hear the person next door

Kindly staff, but moderate room and bathroom.

Very helpful and friendly receptipn staff. Room was nothing exceptional with fairly poor bathroom provisions, in particular no shower gel/shampoo. Nothing outstanding, but nice people.
