Good value, full of character and almost excellent

A lovely characterful place that the owners are clearly trying hard with and providing great service. With some more attention to detail on the finishing off and maintenance of the fittings, and the overall cleanliness of the rooms, this could be excellent.

I would suggest that this is a hotel in transition. It needs a lot of work done to bring it up to scratch (plaster coming off the walls, light bulbs missing etc) however the staff are fabulous, the breakfast very good, the rooms clean enough and the bed was very comfortable. All in all my new go to in Derby

There is no doubt that this hotel has seen better days. A number of items in the room required some TLC. Having said that, the receptionist was super helpful, there is some free parking available, the hotel is conveniently located and it was warm and quiet. It worked for me but YMMV.

Won’t be back and won’t be missed , minimal interest shown by staff and lack of investment probably means one visit guests are likely to make.

I stayed during a quiet time and left early. The hotel was pleasant but could be a touch better looked after. I found broken lights everywhere from lift to bathroom. Some uninsulated electrics in the room (really unacceptable!). But otherwise a pleasant period property, nicely finished, clean, nice staff, good communication.

Unacceptable web service from hotels horrid hotel!

Do not book this hotel through hotels.com. It is dirty and run down and I really did not want to sleep in my room. When I complained I was told that as booked and pre paid through hotels website they could not offer any refund and contacting hotels.co.uk or .com is impossible and hence any reparation similarly so. I will never book this hotel again and I will never book through hotels again. Disgusting service from the website and horrid dirty hotel.

An odd hotel

An odd hotel, it's noisy, the doors are too small for the frame, so let's in sound and draughts. You can hear other people in the shower. The bathroom had an odd smell, not damp something else. The curtains were black out, which was good and the bed comfortable. Check out nobody to be found. Wasn't offered or told anything about the hotel so no idea if they did food or not. I was just given a key to the room.

Okay but not great

Reception staff were helpful, the room was clean and comfortable -however you need to put the wifi code in the room for easy access. At breakfast I asked the staff about whether the bacon was smoked or nor not and I was assured it wasn't, however it was and -very disappointing. Staff should know about the food they serve especially after all the news lately abut allergies etc.

No photo ID no room (apparently)

Asked for photo ID when I checked my brother in at 8pm as it was 'company policy'. He didn't have any but I did, but otherwise they would presumably not have honoured the booking. No one on reception to check out at 8:30am, no response to bell, no one in restaurant, my brother waited 15 mins then gave up leaving key on desk with a note.
