Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The staff were very friendly and helpful. Unfortunately, ibis as an organization that needs to improve their standards. The elevator and coffee machine did not work all 4 days we were there. Reviewing previous comments we see that the elevator has been out of service since April 14!!! Ibis, send someone to repair the elevator!!!!
The coffee machine was out of service as well. The staff were wonderful. They problem solved and brought out boiling water in a thermos. However, not the same as selecting a flat white or cafe latte.
Ibis, have some pride.
The room was poor, lights on all night had to sleep, staff on arrival to very help full, poor stranded of service, look at breakfast it was a mess food all over, tables full of rubbish very poor, on departing once again staff not helpful at all
We were unaware that the lift was oit of order. Upon hearing a telephone conversation, i heard the staff say that everyone was contacted regarding the lift. Can i say we weren't at all. We were on the 4th floor, luckily we were ok with the stairs. But did they really let everyone know. The receptionist was very miserable as well. Not going back.
Couldn’t fault it except the lift not working. Our room was on the 4th floor.
We needed somewhere to stay overnight as we were at a show at the Utilita Arena. This was perfect.
It was a good place for me to stay as I was visiting the Sheffield Institute of sport but there are not many other places nearby. The only thing that would’ve improved my stay was access to an ice machine or a fridge. Definitely cannot complain about value for money as everything was clean and tidy, and the staff were very friendly
Room really small window doesn’t shut so was so loud from the cars and was cold.
Got woke up at 9am in the morning by a cleaning walking into my room unexpectedly and was really angry about that won’t be staying ever again!
