Firstly this more of a hostel than a hotel. Secondly it is terribly over priced for what you get. A double sized room with 5 single beds crammed in, no headboards and not even against the wall so pillows fall off in the night. No soap or shampoo, no breakfast, no cupoards and no chance of sleep. All this costing... More

This place is disgraceful. I see people saying oh, you get what you pay for but you get nothing near what you have paid for! Try £140 for a standard double sized room with four wobbly single beds shoved in there with less than a foot between them. Tiny bathroom with no hot water to the shower in the evening... More

Ok, it was as cheap as chips and I only stayed one night in a single bed room that I had booked, so maybe not a fair reflection on the rest of the 'hotel' but do not expect too much from your stay. It's not what I would call a hotel, it's more of a hostel or a doss-house. The... More

I stayed in this ghastly hotel for thankfully only one night, but it ruined my following working day. The "Welcome" was rude and abrupt from the two "Brothers Grimm" at the reception which looked filthy and unkempt. The carpeting on the stairs and landings was dirty and shabby. The stairs and landings creaked so loudly I was kept awake all... More

Very disappointed with this hotel. I know you get for what you pay for but i would have hoped it would have been clean. It was nothing like the advertised photos. I took my mum and nan away for a couple of days and had a great time. The room was large but the beds were blocking the wardrobes so... More

I booked a room at the fairmount as I was attending a Utility Warehouse conference at the nearby Marriott. The hotel was very convenient and I could park my car early but it was all downhill after that. The hotel is very shabby but the room was clean. The bathroom was fairly new but the faulty switch for the cistern... More

I stayed here with a friend over night for £20. Was not expecting anything great. Essentially you get what you pay for. When we arrived we were asked to pay cash as through booking.com the payment was not fully taken which was a bit strange. There was an additional £5 fee for parking. The single guy who welcomed us was... More
