“Could have been a good birthday weekend ☹️”
- • Leisure trip
- • Group of friends
- • Double Room with Sofa Bed
- • Stayed 3 nights
- • Submitted from a mobile device
I booked two rooms for ourselves and friends to celebrate my husbands birthday. Our stay was pleasant, however I was quite disappointed and responsible as the person booking the hotel that their stay wasn’t at all pleasant. They had two nights of disturbed sleep with extremely noisy neighbours with the Saturday night being kept awake till 2.45am. They did mention it to reception who said we are very sorry !! Then on the last morning the shower in their room wouldn’t work, again reported to reception who said we will let the house keeper know. I do feel that they should have been compensated in some way as a gesture of good. It left me feeling responsible for their very uncomfortable stay that otherwise could have been a weekend to remember for the good not the bad.

“Lazy male staff at reception left an enduring negative impression.”
- • Leisure trip

- • Double Room with Sofa Bed

Very unfriendly male staff. Lazy and not very welcoming on arrival or at any other time. Curt and impatient attitude of male staff. Not receptive to guest requests. The hotel is run for the convenience of the staff, rather than the guests. I wished I had taken a photo of the male staff member slumped over the front counter at breakfast. Would not stay there again - experienced much better at other Express Inns.
