It took us a while to find where the bathroom light switch was. But the only problem was that it was to high for my friend to reach it. So maybe a good idea is to have a pole left in the room. so smaller people can reach it. Apart from that everything else was good

The receptionist, Claudia, was brilliant. Friendly, professional and helpful. We were in the next building along from the main hotel area. This was managed by a secure keypad system, no problems at all. We had a deluxe double room (room 3) and to be honest, if this was a deluxe double room, i cannot only wonder what a normal double would be like. Not a particularly big room but lovely big windows with views of the river. I remember reading a review regards a deluxe room from a guest who'd stayed earlier in July. They said they'd reported a faulty bathroom light on the first day they arrived and it still wasnt fixed when they left. Guess what? We had a faulty bathroom light too (or the same one maybe?). Hard to do much other than shower in there. (That made a horrible whining noise when in use!) The room wasnt clean - dirty skirting boards, the bed appeared to be 2 single beds put together and the marks on both bases were not very clean. We slept on top of the bed - couldn't bring ourselves to get under the covers.The smell in the whole of the building, and our room, was really quite musty and we both thought it smelt like there had been smoking at some stage allowed in the building. Its a shame, as the position of this building should be a delight to spend time in it - we just couldnt get away quick enough. The price we paid is irrelevant really as basic cleanliness should be a given. This place is very run down, very old fashioned. Needs a complete refurb.

We booked a five night stay in a Deluxe Superior room and had to move after two nights. It was so noisy we couldn’t sleep, and our room had some maintenance issues that were not attended to after we asked on the 2nd morning eg bathroom mirror light not working in a dim small bathroom with no window or extractor fan (legal?). We asked for a refund as there was nothing deluxe or superior about the room. We were mislead.

The area was very convenient and had a lovely view of the river. Perfect for access to the city centre. The room itself was clean, just like the photos and they did a great service of the room as we stayed two nights.
Although the area is convenient, be aware it does mean there's noise from traffic all night long. The parking situation was unclear when booking and lead to us receiving a parking ticket. And in our room in particular, the shower was almost unusable.

Misleading but presentable room
Booked overnight stay following a music event nearby. Booked Riverside Hotel, but they obviously own several properties nearby. Our room was in a converted house up a side road so sadly no Riverside view. Room was very preventable. Needs a net curtain at window to aid privacy, better quality mattresses and pillows. Cleaner needs to look up & dust light fittings.

This was a visit to this beautiful city to catch up with friends for food, beers and good company. There is certainly a lot of places to eat and drink nearby along the river and the hotel was only a 10 minute walk from the Cathedral quarter and 15 minutes from the hustle and bustle of the city itself.

Mind Your Head!
An ideal room for a solo traveller on a budget. A single room with its own shower and wc, towels and toiletries included. There were a kettle and beverages supplied by the hotel along with a tv. Access to the room (on the top floor) was via some steep stairs and I kept banging my head on the sloping ceiling but I soon learned to duck! Check-in was quick and efficient; check-out a matter of popping the key in a secure box.

Although I booked for riverside, we were put in one of their other accommodations. Staff were excellent.
Room was very nice, very clean and comfortable beds.
Tea/coffee facilities in room, always good to have. Toiletries and towels. Shower was good, but only downside, it flooded the bathroom floor, as doors didn’t close properly.

Disgusting service, can you call this a hotel?
Terrible stay, tried calling the property before we left to find out about parking arrangements, no answer. We arrived 30 mins before check in and tried calling the duty manager 10+ times on his office and moble phone but no answer, rang the bell as instructed, no answer so had to go do our own thing tried calling twice more from 1330 hours, no answer. Then he called us at around 5 pm to ask when we thought we would be arriving.... When we was finally given access to the property it was very shabby in the communal areas. I am not sure this was being used exclusively as a hotel as there was families in the building with their very young children running around the communal areas at 10pm at night and people cooking in what seemed to be a shared kitchen area which was not mentioned in the info on the site. The manager was phoned again as the children were playing and shouting right our room door whilst their mother was cooking dinner and dishes on the sink, they was asked to be quiet bit didny understand what we was sayinh.The room was noisy as there was traffic all night. The room was acceptable in clenliness and comfort but i have just felt very misled in the description of the property when we booked.

Great stay.
Nice stay, staff friendly, clean room, handy for the railway station and football ground, the room I was in was on the top floor whch has a very steep staircase so bear that in mind if you struggle with stairs apart from that I highly recommend this place. Parking is by paying a fee and hotel gives you a parking permit as the streets outside the hotel require a permit.

No sleep
Good things first: the staff are lovely but they can only do so much.
Bad things: desperately needs renovation. No breakfast. Walls are made of paper. Reception is at the back so you'll hear every single guest come in, snore, fart, and talk loudly into their phones all night. There is no possibility of sleeping.

Bit disappointed
Unhappy with cleanliness… towel provided had someone else’s pubic hair on it, same with the bedding. Just glad I brought my own towel. Not made aware of having to pay for parking permit prior to stay, that was an extra charge.

Lovely room and location. Good communication and helpful staff. The outside verandah area was full of takeaway rubbish which we had to clear to sit outside. The shower thermostat was also not working.

This hotel is very clearly at the ultra low budget end of the market, which would have been okay if the price I paid reflected that.
The single room was very small and had a few weird issue. The bathroom light switch was above the door. At 5ft 11 I could only just reach it. The walls are very thin. I could hear people talking and snoring through the wall. The location also seems to mean you get a lot of loud drunk people passing by in the early hours. Both nights I stayed (over the weekend) I was woken up by people outside.
Check-out was non existent. I went to check-out at the main building. No one answered the door, or answered the phone when I phoned the office or duty manager numbers they had displayed next to the door. I just posted the key through the letterbox and hoped for the best.
All that being said if the price was low enough and you just wanted the cheapest possible place to stay, this could be right for you. Unfortunately for me. As I booked last minute, it wasn't that cheap. Certainly not worth what I paid.

Property very close to the centre of Norwich. A great view of the the canal . Very close to Norwich railway station . Only problem no parking near by . I drove down . When asked about parking the guy on reception wasn’t very helpful . He just said it’s all parking permits . When asked where can I park . He said find a car park . As we were going to the Norwich city v Watford . I drove around the city until I came across an outdoor 24 hr car park for £5 . No thanks to him . It’s called RCP parking Rouen rd car park. The shower was very hot hard to control took 5 mins to adjust to reasonable temp

ery poor and disappointed
The room was so small one of us had to lay on the bed while the other got changed. The entrance stank of sewage and loads of little flies all on the walls. Thankfully the room did not smell as bad. Pillows were like rocks. Breakfast is NOT supplied. Very expensive for what you got. Very disappointing and certainly would NOT stay again.
