Dirty

Unfortunately, our first room smelled like someone has smoked 40 a day in there for at least a year. Second room was much better however the bathroom was filthy, the water in the shower wouldnt drain and stains up the walls and on the doors. The corridor carpets needed a good clean too. I dont mind cheaper hotels, but there is no excuse for dirty rooms/corridors. However, staff were really good, helpful and friendly

Smelly drains

We checked into a standard double room. Mould in the shower, not very clean. Bathroom flooring was lifting, making a lump that could have been tripped over & the drains smell was terrible. I asked to be moved, was told there were no more rooms available in the hotel as the cleaner hadn't turned up that morning & just the rooms that were needed that night had been cleaned. Whilst we were out one of the reception staff used some drain cleaner which was better on our return.

Bed bugs.

Perfect location for us. Bed was nice size and comfy. No soap in bathroom, had to use the shower gel. Lift not working, air conditioning unit not working, although we did not require either of these other people might do. Thought it was ok for a one night stay until the morning when we realised we had been sharing our room with bed bugs. Will not be staying here again.

Very convenient location, and easy to check in and out. Sadly the room was very cold, there were two fan heaters left for us but only 2 plug sockets - so once they were plugged in we had no other access to an electricity source. One window wouldn’t close fully so you could hear everything from the street.

Forshaws....

good location... room was nice and clean... the place feels like a Hostel and not a Hotel... the breakfast is very expensive £10 (which i did not have) as there is a Pound Bakery just around the corner and offers better value... the bar/eating area within the Hotel is like a student union... I asked about recycling some plastic bottles I had and was told there was no recycling facilities... very poor!

Won't be staying here again

Building is extremely run down, previously stayed here when it was an Ibis and couldn't fault it however now seems poorly maintained, examples: lightbulbs not working in the room or in corridors, uneven bathroom lino (bumpy from previous flooding from shower), coat hangers above the spare bed (so was unable to hang anything up or our daughter would have anywhere to sleep). The room didn't appear to have been properly cleaned- dust. On a positive note- the bed was comfortable and clean and the staff were friendly and helpful however appeared to be over worked. We saw one cleaner running up and down the stairs, hoovering, emptying the bins- working very hard! Perfect location! Before you park!!! Ask about the discount for parking in the multi-story on Talbot road, we wasn't told until we were leaving and could have saved over £10!

Awful room. Dirty carpet, dirty bed linnens, no hand soap in the bathroom dispenser. Windowsills full of dead bugs. Great view, but the room in so bad condition we checked in to another hotel.
