The hotel was convenient, but I stayed for 4 nights only. Ideal location, delightful staff, lots of food for the buffet breakfast. Cosy and warm rooms. Quiet beds.

Affordable hotel, non-smoking rooms, quick breakfast, efficient staff. The beds were big, I slept well. The lighting there was natural. Its location was very central, walking distance to The Museum of Reading.

Even though you guys made our stay comfortable, beds were hard. Very central location was a plus.
The staff were abrupt, didn't expect that coming.

We greatly enjoyed everything at the hotel, perfect for what we needed. Very clean property, perfect location, HELPFUL staff. Our twin room had a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a sitting area and a study table. Paid GBP 7.95 per person per day for breakfast, totally worth it.
