Not recommended.

Would never stay again. Advertised as a nice place to stay - it's not. We had a room attached to the carpark, not in the hotel complex, and our door was next to the driveway of the hotel from the street. No secure parking in an area which is very dodgy. Hotel seem to cater for single males who loitered around the carpark. Didn't feel safe in the room with our flimsy door so close to the street and didn't like car parked in a non-secure area. It's a dodgy area of Hull. Staff were abrupt and not at all pleasant. Got the impression we were an inconvenience to them. Never again and I would not recommend it to couples or families. A single male who likes to smoke and drink - its the perfect place to stay!!

Arrived at the hotel to find that they do not do breakfast ( website said they do ) , after checking into what wAs described as a brand new built annex we arrived at a very small room with no windows (except a skylight looking straight up) , a very cheap and uncomfortable bed which I was dubious would take our weight and a small child size chair. The en-suite was clean but the shelf above the sink was hanging off , the room did have tea/coffee making facilities but the small cartons of milk were all off ..... overall you get what you pay for and at £31 for the night we did . A cheap budget hotel The only positive was the restaurant next door ( Isabella’s ) which served amazing food at excellent prices and we will definitely be eating there again .
