This hotel has had a chequered past, furniture in the room was very rough and messed up, the shower lacked a cubicle door ,,,, but it was clean, new carpets, nice bedding, the lift worked and above all unbelievably cheap...; I got a twin room en suite with breakfast for £40!

The welcome was perfect from very friendly staff and I slep well and is in a good location.The hotel looks as if its been a long time since any attention was given to the decor, our room looked very tired and the bathroom was not as clean as it could have been. The continental breakfast was meagre to say the least, cereal, toast, old fruit, and amused many other guests. Not good value for the money.

We stayed in room 31 on the 5th floor.. no hot water at 5pm for a shower or a bath, cracked mirror in the bath room, severe smell of sewage in the bathroom .. burn marks on the sofa and curtains stains on the walls and floors .. couldn’t wait to get away spoilt a weekend to a gig locally.. guests leaving from room 29 also stated the safe needless to say will never return and expect some recompense from Expedia also for even having this on there site

Stayed here for 1 night whilst going to a concert at The Piece Hall, good location and cheap car park next door, it did the job as we literally just slept there, was concerned whilst checking as someone came back to reception asking for money back however room was very light as on a corner with 2 windows however bathrooom is very tired, no plug for sink although water only drained very very slowly, shower adequate after waiting a long time for hot water.Would not stay for any longer .

Ideal place to stay for a gig at The Piece Hall, but our room was grotty. Stains on the carpet, scribbles and writing on the furniture, a headboard that was peeling. A fan would have been nice in the room because it was so hot. No air-con. Our room card would not work despite going back down to the desk twice. The guy on reception was very friendly and welcoming though.

Firstly I need to say that the staff at this property were brilliant- friendly, polite and very helpful. Breakfast was basic but fine. The location for Halifax was great- just a very brief walk from the Piece Hall, with the bus station and cheap parking on the doorstep. But my room was in a poor state, with a stained carpet, pen graffiti on the wooden furniture, and electric cables pinned down with gaffer tape. The electronic door handle was loose which gave me no confidence that the room was locked or secure. I paid very little so it was fine for the price, but do not expect luxury!

Acceptable for the location to the piece hall but the place needs a full revamp. Our room was tatty disgusting stains on the bedding. Carpet was wet. Tv remote didn’t work hardly any plug sockets. Breakfast was sad no tea coffee just juice. Cereals and crossaints and toast. Staff were friendly check in was very easy. Wouldn’t return unless completely redone. Parking next door was £2.50 for 24 hours which is very reasonable.

The guy that worked on the front desk was excellent at customer service. He was friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, the hotel itself needs a lot of TLC. The room was grim. The furniture was old. The bathroom stank of cigarettes. And the bed was so grim I didn’t take my clothes off and slept on top of my other t shirts laid out on the bed. Yes, I know it was cheap. But it was also the most depressing hotel I’ve stayed in. Gave customer service 5 stars. 1 or 2 stars for everything else.
