6/10 Good

The room was clean including the beddings although the building is certainly early Victorian, the room itself has a wooden floor and fully tiled ensuite, details such as difficulty in open and locking main room door have been looked over. Overall fair deal nevertheless.

8/10 Very good

The hotel is definetely a bit shabby and down-at-heel, but it is clean and the staff friendly. Although it was a shared bathroom this was not a problem. The shower was surprisingly strong and as hot as i needed. The room was small but the matress on the bed was very comfortable. If you're happy with cheap but clean then I'd recommend it. I'd stay again

This room was simple, but clean and the shower was good. The owner gave me an upgrade so that I did not have to share a bathroom. For the price, it exceeded my expectations.

It's cheap and adequate, beds are comfortable enough; however, the wifi wasn't good enough to stream TV which when is pretty essential to pass time when working away from home.

Clean Bed Sheets.......and thats it

The bed was nice with fresh sheets and the bathroom was nice and clean apart from broken tap. We were lucky to have the double with en-suite, other rooms had a shared bathroom. Manky carpets, dirty walls, mouldy ceiling. Noisy. I know its a cheap hotel but wasnt dirt cheap.

6/10 Good

Cheap, cheerful and comfy if a little tired

I needed a comfy affordable room for a 1 night stay in Reading and in that respect it ticket all the boxes for my requirement. Comfy enough bed for an average sized bloke, not the softest but perfectly fine, good supply of tea and coffee although could have done with a couple more milks as I like my tea a little milkier than average. Its a shared bathroom so its only going to be as clean as the left person left it so you kind of expect the odd hair but it was fine for me, ive used festival toilets and showers and if coped with them I can more than cope with this. The place is a little tired but its an old building. One notable point to make on the furnishings was the mirror was attached to the wall with glue and sealant and it was a shocking job with gobs of it everywhere. It really doesnt take 2 minutes to smooth out the sealant so that is just laziness and it really let the room down for something to easy to avoid. So 3/5, far from Buckingham Palace, but cheap and cheerful and £27 for a single room is a great price to be fair.

2/10 Poor

Well all you need to know is we passed the police raiding with Tasers drawn in the corridor as we were leaving... Unclean, unwelcoming locked front door, very tired fittings, mouldy, musty smelling, broken tap, could go on. Recommended if you want to be on Police camera action.
