Just a old hotel.
Serice is not good at all, took my card details for any damage in room, it never happened before, small box room with single bed and took £58 and that too is in bad condition. And the worse thing is said parking available when booking but when i arrived i have to park in the street. You have to book for the breakfast timing first.
So bad experience, I wont recommend this to anyone

Not super clean but comfortable w/ yummy breakfast
The bed was comfortable and the bathroom clean, but the room was not vacuumed and the smell of mould was really strong. The great breakfast saved it all because of the friendly staff, the presentation of the breakfast food and the overall quality.

A good stay
Nice room, excellent value for money, clean, modern, good size, tea/coffee/biscuits/fruit in room. Was a little cold that day and raidiator in room wasnt working but wasn't too cold to necessitate me asking reception. Breakfast was amazing. Generally a very good stay.

I always like staying here. The room prices are good, the area is quiet and the staff are friendly. However, the hotel is falling apart in places with maintenance badly needed in the rooms.

Staff lovely, room not so much.
Staff were lovely and welcoming, however...
* TV Remote was missing and the TV barely worked due to cable damage which was there when we arrived.
* Big scratch on the TV screen also which was there before we first entered the room.
* Puddle of damp water (we think and hope) just outside of the bathroom door which we were unsuccessful in mopping up or drying for the duration of our stay.
* Breakfast was quite poorly organised, seemed to be a lot of chaos and confusion as people turned up before their slots and the food overall was average and served lukewarm.
* Door lock was confusing and stiff - had to really give it force to both lock and unlock upon entry and exit to the room.
* Bathroom door didn't shut properly, again, very stiff and wouldn't lock effectively.

It is a lovely area but a very run-down hotel which for the price was disappointing.
Terrible shower, damp issues across the walls, bad breakfast.
I would not return.

This was a good find. Quiet non-smoking room overlooking trees. Parking, excellent location. Staff extremely nice. Generous breakfast. Very good value for money. Hot powerful shower. Only problem that there is no room for plugs to fit in the three plug sockets above the dressing table. So I had to boil the kettle on the bedside table.

Welcoming helpful staff. The rooms were clean enough and beds comfortable. Breakfast and service was good. Thankfully we got a parking space so this was not an issue for us. The hotel is in a nice part of Bristol and close to the sites we wanted to see so we didn’t need the car. I would consider staying there again.
Lack of a lift was inconvenient at times.
