Just stayed one night and regretted it. My room was filthy dirty, the carpet badly stained, the bathroom awful with a rotting bath panel and obvious dirt round the basin and WC. The curtains appeared never to have been cleaned. There was no bedside light. The furniture was scratched and worn and was a disgrace. I would never stay at... More

Not a nice place to stay at all. The location should help it succeed but it's very tired and drab, it needs investment. It is certainly cheap but I wouldn't stay there again at even half the price. The road outside is closed off to traffic some nights during the week. The party-goers then take over so noise can be... More

1st time i used this hotel and it won't be the last :) What a lovely receptionist Liz is... naturally warm, friendly and very welcoming. She is a real asset to the hotel and her employers should give her a well deserved bonus :) Not only does The Court have a delightful receptionist but the staff in their kitchen know... More

I stopped at the County Hotel with some work colleagues on business in April this year. This hotel is in dire need of a renovation as it is rather tired and shabby in places. The room I stopped in was functional, however the shower fitted to the bath didn’t work and there were large gaps behind the toilet and sink... More

We booked two single en suite rooms and that is what we got. In fact we got a little better than that because each room had a chair and a table as well as room to move around. Any one who has any experience of single rooms will know that this is not always the case. The water from the... More

I booked a twin room and a single room separately through booking.com. When we arrived it turned out that both rooms were on different floors as they had been booked separately. The reception man managed to get us on the same floor. The new room turned out to be a triple (which they don't advertise) When we realised this he... More

At £45 for a large room for two including full English breakfast, we had to give it a try. The friendly receptionist gave us 3 keys to allow us choose a room which suited us.
