Good breakfast, friendly staff. Ideal for a weekend away

Jade, United Kingdom

Excellent value for money. Staff were most helpful in getting taxis etc.

David, Ireland

No complaints. Wall-mirrors not too high for short people. More than I expected as regards room facilities. All good. Near a park. A bit out of town, marginally further than one might want to walk, but next to the bus stop. (Good bus service in Reading, but not cheap. Short journey £8 for two into town and back.) Yes I would stay here again.

Peter, United Kingdom

bed was comfy, and all the staff very helpful and polite, we were shown to our room by the security man, who explained the room had recently been refurbished. The bath room and shower were very good. The room over all was very clean, tidy with tea/coffee making facilities. Could possibly have had a fan in the room as it was very hot.

“Good Location”
- • Leisure trip
- • Couple
- • Double Room
- • Stayed 2 nights
눉We were put in a building quite a walk away from the main building, the room was also about a 1/3 of the size of one I stayed in before in the main building (for the same price) which was disappointing. Although nicely decorated, the bathroom is an accident waiting to happen - the base of the shower has no slip protection. Also everso small.
눇Good Location for where we were going. bathroom was nicely decorated

눉Nothing really. What could have been better? : Removal of the scaffolding immediately outside the window. Presumably that will be done as soon as circumstances allow. I could have checked the room when arriving (better to decide beforehand for example whether one could manage the stairs; which I could). There was no lift. It was fortunate I happened to have brought my own toothpaste, as well as (of course) my toothbrush. Signs on the walls giving directions to room numbers would be an improvement: on return at night I chose the wrong front door and had to phone reception for guidance.
눇No complaints. Wall-mirrors not too high for short people. More than I expected as regards room facilities. All good. Near a park. A bit out of town, marginally further than one might want to walk, but next to the bus stop. (Good bus service in Reading, but not cheap. Short journey £8 for two into town and back.) Yes I would stay here again.

눉the advertised price was originally for well over £200 reduced to £69, Although compared to other company's the price was lower, but on reflection we did not think the original price would have been correct.

눉The room was in an annex, not in the main hotel and looked very worn. The wifi did not reach the room, the iron was disgusting and ruined a shirt, and the fan was completely broken. It was a very sunny day, the blinds barely blocked any light and with the window open I was constantly woken up throughout the night and morning by people walking to and from the annex on the loose stone walkway. I would not stay there again.
