Nice place but the parking around the area for loading and unloading was problematic. The property itself was nice and a good stay. Centrally located and the discounted parking was a bonus. I would definitely recommend the hotel

Loved this hotel, great location close to the square and train. But was quiet and comfortable. Not great if you want to hang out and watch tv but not why we were there so it was perfect. Breakfast is a little pricey so we mixed it up with some area cafes.

Spent two nights here and loved it. The hotel was a short walk from either the train station or the bus station, so it's very convenient for travelers exploring the area. Hotel condition was great and the staff were very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were a nice size and had all the amenities to make our stay comfortable. An added bonus is the small convenience store directly across the street! Would highly recommend.

If I had to sum up my rooms at the Eyre Square Hotel in one word it would be - disgusting. The backs of the doors (including the strange partial glass door to the bathroom) were covered in dripping unknown substances, surfaces were covered in messes, carpets had food remnants, the vinyl headboards stained, windows filthy inside and out, and the mattress nearly made me sick when confieming lack of BB. If not for the fact we were a large family multi generational group traveling on a busy weekend from abroad - there is no way we would have stayed. The front desk was pleasant and tried to be helpful sending the cleaners back up - who sprayed some cleaning solution but sadly left much of the messes. The location is great but does not make up for the lack of comfort. Also, there was construction noise (alarms) we were unaware of at booking. Definitely do not recommend.
