Room still had previous guest's belongings in the room. They said they would clean it but all they did was take out the guests shoesand bags leaving the used sheets towel and soap. I walked around the corner and booked at the Comfort Inn instead. Do NOT book at the Ivy. The Holly House Hotl is the same hotel. Don't... more

I booked at this hotel (again before joining TripAdvisor and reading any reviews!) for one night. The pictures on the website look nothing like the actual hotel. I was looking for something cheap and I found it in all respects. I paid 29 pounds for a single en suite. When I arrived I paid at the security window (no lobby)... more

Well I couldnt even bear to stay there so I lost £80. Booked for 2 nights and I stupidly paid on arrival as I was asked. The carpet was filthy, the bathroom was a cupboard and when I moved the bed away from the wall the skirting board was caked in what looked like sick!! No way could I sleep,... more

Whatever you do, do not stay here. The hotel's website completely misrepresents the rooms. When you walk in, the lobby has a security window and they make you pay right away. Walking up to the rooms is scary, but not as bad as the rooms themselves. HORRIBLE. Dirty rooms with carpets and bedsheets that haven't been washed in years. A... more

I would honestly say this was the worst hotel I have ever stayed in. We arrived and our room wasn't clean the cleaner was still in there picking up all the beer cans littering the floor. The room was so small with 2 single beds crammed in and a bathroom that was a practically a cupboard built in the corner... more

Bedroom was dusty, window was broken, draught coming in from somewhere around the window frame, empty air freshener dispensers dotted around room and bathroom. Bathroom was appalling - extremely tiny and very difficult to use for showering or using the toilet. Everything looked like someone with zero DIY skills had had a go at making and fixing the fixtures and... more

I would not recommend this hotel to anyone! We booked online from Canada and when we got there the room was disgusting! It was dirty, and the facilities were awful. The bedding looked like it belonged in the Salvation Army not in a hotel. The carpets were filthy as well. Within 10 minutes of being there, I was bitten by... more
