Fairly standard twin room. Décor and facilities a bit dated perhaps but clean and quite acceptable for one night stay or weekend away. Continental breakfast little more than bread and cereal. Busy local bar on ground floor. 10 minutes from nearest Metro or perhaps 25-30 from the city centre.

I liked the TV and WIFI, and the bed was comfortable. I found the shower hard to manage. The room was a bit shabby and the noise from the bar downstairs was loud but it all went quiet at 11 when it closed.

For the price it was excellent value The heating didn’t work in our room (hot water and shower did work and shower was lovely) but we did have a heater which worked a treat. There was complimentary breakfast bag and free coffee machine in the morning

6/10 Good

The room was adequate and provided what it needed. The bathroom was definitely not cleaned properly in a long time with a buildup of mould in the caulking and behind taps. Be mindful when booking that the bar downstairs is popular with a student party crowd (not too unusual with the area) so the music is loud until the early morning. Overall not a bad stay just not a great stay.

when we arrived the staff were very nice. went up to our room and very small especially bathroom shower was very poir was getting outside the shower cubicle wet. when in the shower the floor was very slippy. went to open toilet door and the handle came off as was just hanging on with 1 screw. contenental breakfast was disapointing didnt offer soya milk for allergies as i need this milk.

4/10 Fair

Brilliant staff, delapedated rooms with falling off skirting, ceiling tiles and bath seals which make a proper clean impossible. Stuff were kind and responsive and moved us to a slightly less than terrible room. Only stay if you don't mind exceptionally loud banging music. To be fair it switches off completely at 11 but up until then very noisy.

Loyal customer worried about building stability

I'm very familiar with the area and it's a great one. I stayed in a single bed room this time and it was lovely, efficient and clean as per usual (albeit it's not the most modern fittings). This time around however I was genuinely worried about how stable the room was as the room moved a lot as I walked across the floor and I noticed a lot of jaunty angles in the plaster. It was enough motion to make me feel dizzy and somewhat sick. I'd hate for this hotel to have some sort of instability.

4/10 Fair

First the good stuff, the staff were lovely and helpful. The onsite bar is really good in the evening. On arrival, we were asked for a £50 safety bond to Guarantee we didnt damage the room! Our first room was not good, dirty marks on the wall, and tiny. On asking, we were shown another which was also small. Third attempt was a bigger room. By this time, we were fed up and agreed to stay after considering leaving. Continental breakfast is a toaster, bread, pancakes and a small bowl of assorted fruit. In short, this is a hotel crying out for modernisation and some TLC in a prime location too. Do this and we would consider returning but until then, sorry just cant.

4/10 Fair

If I had really understood what the hotel was like I would have chosen somewhere else. I was in the area overnight to visit my son at university and it was not suitable for me at all. The hotel is above a sports bar. The restaurant is located in the bar so it's not a great place in the afternoon or evening, especially for a female travelling alone. The room was so small that there was no door on the bathroom in my bedroom, so I got a great view of the toilet from my bed. The wallpaper above the bed was peeling. The walls were extremely thin. It wasn't an experience I want to repeat. The night staff were very helpful and friendly, though, and the room was clean.

Business trip

The staff were very friendly and helpful and the room was clean but a bit tired with wallpaper peeling and a phone line not yet properly installed creating a trip hazard as you walked in. The tea spoon of the room’s coffee set had already been used as it was covered in a sticky coffee residue. Breakfast was a bit lacking - toast, a small selection of yoghurts, flapjack and some cut melon. Both juice dispensers were empty and an offering of cereal would have been nice. In fairness the hotel was at capacity for the Great North Run so I might just have been in a room that’s normally less used and due a refresh - it was otherwise quite comfortable. I can’t grumble for the price and it did the job for a business trip.

Not impressed

The staff were lovely but that is about the only thing good about this hotel. I know i picked a cheeper option so that’s on me but the bathtub was dirty from the previous occupant the curtains were broken so every morning would get hit with the sun. You can also here every single thing through the walls, water is especially bad any time someone uses the loo or goes for a shower you can here it like it’s in your bedroom. The bed im sure the mattress hasn’t been updated in years as it’s hard as a rock. Very outdated although i wouldn’t usually care about the design the hallway leading up to the rooms smells so musty. I ate on the first night i was there they were out of fish and chips so had the scampi although it was more like rock pellets and inedible. I’d say this hotel is good if your a party goer and just want a cheep night to stay but if your just visiting friends and family like i was go for the slightly more expensive option.

Average hotel close to city centre.

Ok for a 1 night stay. Staff seemed friendly enough. Room whilst generally clean and bed comfortable was in need of a makeover. There were dusty areas in the corners of the carpet and the shower cubical leaked, as there was no where to hang towel whilst in shower put on floor outside and it got soaking wet. Guess you get what you pay for. Had to pay a £50 security deposit whilst this was made clear when booking I have never been asked to do this before and I have stayed in many many hotels. Also very inflexible with parking. Wanted to pop and get coffee in the. Morning but was told car had to be removed by 11 else I would get a parking fine. Couldn’t even extend for an hour. Close to city centre.

2/10 Poor

Don't bother of you value sleep. Being situated right over a bar, not to mention the whole of Osborne road is literally lined with clubs & hotels, you will not get much sleep at all. Loud music below you until 11pm, people yelling outside and someone constantly slamming doors will be what you can expect. The staff are lovely & I received a warm welcome but they can do little for the noise. Bring earplugs!! £50 deposit required upon entry in case of damage to the room although the room is very outdated and falling apart anyways so not sure you could damage it much further (see pics). Bed & bedding was lovely & clean. The rest has clearly been attempted to be cleaned, but at this point it's just glossing over the cracks. Would describe this hotel as "extremely budget" and wouldn't recommend. Edit: was moved rooms when i complained and the noise from the bar & dj was a lot less however noisy neighbouring rooms meant I still got little sleep. Shower was not clean & riddled with black mold.
