Value for money in a good location. If they took a little bit more care with maintenance would be excellent value

Great stay at the Ibis style. The room was so hot they provided a fan. Only one negative thing was that there was an extract fan from the restaurant that was very noisy.

The reception staff were friendly and welcoming.
The room was very tired and extremely warm. Believe it was overpriced for what it is but was fine for the night.

The man at the reception was very friendly
He gave me a room upgrade when I arrived which I didn't really understand why
The room he gave me had a slight smell of urine and the Aircon unit was noisey
The windows look out onto a flat roof and you could smell the Indian restaurant next door
The basic look of the hotel was good
There wasn't a lot of chose for the breakfast
I expected better from a ibis hotel
I have stayed in others before and did not have any issues

This Hotel I find is more for asian people than euoropeans. Room was noisy so I requested a move a different room. This was done. Info in the bathroom says bath mats were available,the hotel didn’t have anything.
Ask I am 85,it was quite differerent,standing in the bath with nothing to hold on to keep my balance.

The worst stay I have had for a long long time. I chose this place due to the Name Ibis. I wrongly assumed the “style” part of the name would be a step up from a Budget hotel. (I’m not a fan of the budget Ibis, but the others have largely been decent)
This hotel was unreal! I asked to change room because: there was no bathroom light, the earth cables for the radiator were trailed loosely over the floor, the shower only went hot or scalding, the floor coverings were disgusting, the decor was really tatty (I understand that places have to upgrade gradually, but wow), no aircon (not a prerequisite obvs), no signal on the TV, incredibly hot rooms even after the heatwave and the beds were way past their best! When I changed room, the only thing that changed was the bulb in the bathroom light!!!!
Spoke ti another family who stayed also and they were furious. £140per night, I would expect better.
The restaurant downstairs for evening meals made good food and the staff were pleasant. That’s the extents of the praise I could give.

The first room we were given, did not have air-conditioning and it was a heat wave. The windows did not open and the TV did not get any signal. We complained to management and they moved us to a room with "A/C". The A/C just blew warm air, we could not get it to cool at all. The radiator in the bathroom was on MAX heat the whole time and the shower only put out scalding hot water. We found out the problem with the TV was with their provider, so they did not have service to the whole hotel. In the second room, only 1 of the 3 windows opened as well. They did give us a fan, so they tried - but failed miserably. Service was the best part of the stay. It is not the main IBIS hotel close to the station. This is close to town centre as well, but it is to the west of the Oracle. 2 mins walk from the Oracle.
