Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The hotel is very close to Reading town centre and train station, so staying here was very convenient. The staff were friendly and responsive to our needs. The bed was soft, and the shower was powerful. The location is difficult to access by car, however, on account of the UK's bizarre addiction to one-way streets.

The property location is good. However even though it says there is live music on the weekends creating noise in some rooms I stayed midweek and there was music till late. Not very clean. Cheap furniture and fittings and most importantly mattress which wasn’t comfortable. The pigeon in the window woke me at 5 am (not hotel’s fault). Only will stay again if I don’t find anything else.

Cleanliness the only issue
Location was excellent for access to the town centre and public transport. Check in was straightforward. The room was very basic, as expected so no problem, but concerned about the cleanliness when my tea cup was stuck to the saucer (face down) and was dirty, and a big clump of hair on the floor outside the shower. Single bed, comfy enough

Freddie

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities
The bathroom really needed some attention. There appeared to be some type of stains on the floor and very heavy black mould on the shower door. Overall the hand sink needed a good clean with hard water scum removed. The shower stall also need a removal of hard water scum. On the floor towel were two very long black hairs. Not mine as I am a blonde. I also could not get hot water for the shower or sink. After speaking to a couple of other guests I was told they did have hot water but they had to let the water run for a very long time in the hand basin before the shower water will get hot. I wish I had known that because I went without a shower. I do have pictures of the mould which was the major issue.
