Location & Price

Noise - Had a DJ until 3am with no sound proofing - It was a nightmare. It was not made clear that the bathrooms were shared! Staff were unfriendly & breakfast was poor.

Overall: Wouldn't stay again because of the above!  (108692824)

Unfortunately, when I got there, I was informed they had double booked me and although they had tried my phone - oh, really? - they had been unable to contact me. So they put me in a taxi to a place they recommended, which would be much quieter. That bit was true, because the so-called Bed and Breakfast I booked turned out to be a late night bar. Unfortunately the place they sent me was on the other side of town from where I needed to be early in the morning, thus forcing me to take a half hour taxi ride and undermining the purpose of the overnight stay, which was to avoid having to take an early train up from London.

The room was nice and the bed very comfortable. Breakfast was very good as well.

Bad points outweigh the good I am afraid. bathroom sharing is problematic and unhygenic. You have to queue for a shower and it is not kept as clean. Noise was outrageous, plainly didnt sleep more than 2 hours each night. The hotel is understaffed so breakfast takes a long time.

Overall: I would never stay there again for the reasons above, it was very unpleasent going back to my room at night through a busy bar with drunk people and knowing I wouldnt be able to sleep form noise, single glazing!!! Also going to a shared bathroom, which was not left too clean from the previous visitors and not regularly cleaned made me feel dirty after the 2 days I stayed in this hotel.  (108275262)

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.
