Fantastic staff!
I was visitng friends so booked this hotel for a reasonable price. It was tired looking but clean, and comfortable. The hotel was so accommodating to me being Vegan and were happy for my friend to join me in the lounge/ communal area for drinks. The saff were 10/10.
It was very cold and the heating appeared to be broken but the staff appeared to be working really hard to get round this.

Good location near University
Having walked out of another Loughborough hotel it was a relief to be somewhere clean and with attentive staff.
The hotel has the feel of an holiday inn express in terms of room style and perfectly adequate for my short stay.

Damp smelling room - damp carpet
Obvious damp issue in the room but as I was in a hurry I had to drop my stuff and get out to meet people. I didn’t have time to walk back down to reception to highlight the issue and see if there was another room. When I returned later that evening the damp smell was till prevalent but this was late evening. I settled down for bed and tried to get to sleep which was difficult due to the smell. I found discarded food wrappers below the bedside table which was disappointing. I did mentioned the damp smell at check and I believed it to be the carpet but the receptionist seemed not overly concerned and said she’d pass my comments onto the manager and they would be in touch. I’ve not heard anything since.
