We stayed here for 2 nights in February. There was a delay when we arrived with our room. Not sure why as it was past check in time. The room was lovely but it had the feel of a refurbished motel. It was apparent the floor had not been cleaned on the second morning as sand was still there!! The reception area was nice. However there is no restaurant and we were disappointed to be told that breakfast could be bought in the food truck int he car park. It was a real shame as our road trip in Florida had lovely stays in really good hotels. Biggest disappointment was the bar! The barman was not particularly helpful when I asked him what beers he had. We had one drink and left. On the second day we ordered rum punch which was supposed to be their signature and best selling drink. I could not detect a trace of rum in it. We felt ripped off here. Would not recommend it.
Manager is disrespectful to everyone and she shouldn't have the position of manageress. EVER!
I stayed here for two weeks with my partner and 4 month old baby. They had no travel cot for her to sleep in even though the website said just ask at reception. No staff working and if they was wasn't very helpful. Whenever I came In or out there was no one on reception. My room was clean but the bedsheets were ripped and stained. The towels had holes in. For the two weeks I was there our room was cleaned once. They only really came in to change the bin. I had to buy my own kettle as it was filled with limescale. At first we was told we couldn't leave our buggy downstairs (we was on second floor and there's no lifts). Then when others started leaving there's we did too. Very old decor. Breakfast is over priced for what you get.
Not unlike staying in my gran's spare room, Missing many of the amenities of other hotels. The furniture and decor is old, no electronic locks on the doors, the front desk isn't always staffed, and the rooms have no AC. That being said, the rooms are large and the beds are comfortable enough, the staff were nice on the occasions I saw them, and the TV package and Internet access were good.
Mixed bag overall. Might stay again, but only if I really had no other choice.
Nice hotel with a good, quiet location to access Stevenage town centre and surrounding areas. Comfortable room at a decent price.
