2.0 / 5 2.0 / 5 Amanda [Plymouth, GB] on 19/06/2009 (Solo business traveller)

Room nice and clean

Very poor restaurant experience. Dirty wine glass, which was replaced but the wine was poured from dirty glass to clean one, until I asked for fresh wine too. Dreadful nachos that I returned, due to overall presentation and appearance. I explained to waiting staff and check in staff that I would not be paying for my meal, however when I came to check out in the morning,I had to explain the story again as I was billed from the restaurant. Room very noisy due to traffic on main road, and very hot, no air conditioning, which is not always essential, however, when the traffic noise is bad even with the window shut, vital. Hairdryer in room did not work

Overall: I would not stay at the Wee Waif again, which is a shame, because when I pulled up I thought it looked very pretty and sweet.  (107518192)

price and location

Our room had a bed light with a missing bulb. my friend grabbed the light and received a electric shock. Exposed electricity points is incredible dangeous and although my friend luckly only recieved a small shock this could have been a major problem. This is not really acceptable

Overall: Good  (108473260)

Room and facilities excellent

Being unable to contact the Hotel by telephone. Two of the three calls were sent to an answering machine, and although we asked for a return call and left our phone number as requested, no-one came back to us.

Overall: V Good  (107341095)

Why do we publish ratings from Active Hotels?

Our rating system is designed to give you the confidence to find and book the hotel that best suits your needs. We've worked hard to create a fair and impartial process to collect our ratings so you can always be assured of a great hotel experience.

How do I add a rating?

Unlike other sites that offer ratings, our rating process is by invitation only. This ensures that 100% of the ratings you see on our site come from guests that have booked online with us and stayed at the hotel in question.

All our ratings are created by guests who have booked through Active Hotels (or its sister sites) and completed their stay over the last year. We don't edit, alter or adjust the ratings so you can be sure of unbiased opinions.

How do you manage to collect so many ratings?

48 hours after departure from your accommodation booked through Active Hotels or any of our sister sites, you may be invited to complete a guest review questionnaire. This means that, for most hotels, we're able to post more than 1 guest rating every single week. We currently display over 70,000 ratings and we add hundreds of scores from real guests every day.
