The light in the bathroom started flashing and couldn’t be fixed so we had to change rooms that evening - two single instead of a double. The bathroom light in one of these rooms also started flashing. We were able to move back into a double room the following night. The hotel location is good but a lot of noisy renovations being done on surrounding buildings. The hotel’s front door wasn’t operating properly.

Great staff and location however the facility itself is getting run down and could used some upgrades to the rooms. This was more noticeable now than the first time I stayed there a few years ago.

Kenneth, Newcastle

Travelled with family
Liked: Staff & service
The staff was very friendly and welcoming, which we appreciated. However, the room quality and bathroom cleanliness did not meet expectations. The bathroom had rusted towel holders, the floor and bathtub showed stains, and the towels did not appear clean. The hallways also gave more of a budget motel feel rather than a city-center hotel experience. Given the prime location, I expected higher standards of upkeep and maintenance. It seems the hotel may be relying on its central location to attract guests rather than ensuring the facilities meet the level of quality one would anticipate.
