Expectations for 30 a night inc breakfast are low, this is a functional overnight stop above a pub (with some good beers and staff) but nearly having my car broken into in the carpark means I am never going there again.

I'll try to keep this short, if you literally just want somewhere to sleep and have no standards then it's fine, we only spent one night thankfully (Saturday) and it was cheap in comparison to most other places but that comes with a cost, very old and musty smell apart from the onsuite which was fitted early 2017, shame they haven't finished it yet, no where for towels or shampoos and no toilet roll holder fitted and not even painted door or frame and no hot water from shower in morning. Extra pillow in cupboard looks like an old rag. How they can advertise as breakfast included is beyond me, bread for toast, cereal, orange juice in a shared kitchenette near the rooms to make your own which we didn't bother with as just wanted to get out. You pay on arrival before you see room and when leaving not surprisingly wasn't asked how our stay was. Lots of noise shouting, swearing and sounded like fighting from pub below, could hear the bar maid shouting at someone to behave, definitely not somewhere to stay if you have children with you. We paid 60 so yes it was cheap in comparison but in my opinion that was too much and I wouldn't want to stay again if it was free.

Cheap. Olympia Hotel is a pub and you have to wade through the smokers round the front door to get in but, despite the lively bar, the accommodation was quiet. My single room was spacious with a shower inside the room - the loo being down the corridor, up five steps. The room had two ceiling lights, only one of which worked, and the switches were across the room from the bed. The strip light above the wash-basin and mirror didn't work either - near the bed was a wall light which did work but was hanging by its wires and consequently had had the wardrobe placed close by. The top half of the window opened but you would have to be tall to avoid having to balance on the upholstered chair to tackle it as I had to. The floor had obviously not been hoovered.A small tv and kettle provided comfort, there was a well stocked kitchen with extra tea and coffee - along with orange juice, a range of cereals, bread and jam for breakfast. A toaster, iron, dish washer and sink were also in here.The staff I came in contact with were lovely and I slept well - can't say fairer that that.

Local drinking pub with on site brewery. Could be a really nice place but desperately in need of some investment and updating. Has very little atmosphere.

Booked into a room for two nights and left after one.Bed wasn't the comfiest....mattress could do with changing. Questionable stains on the sofa.Paper thin walls, doors constantly banging. Other guests were noisy and inconsiderate both night and morning (this can't be helped, however maybe having staff at the premises overnight could eradicate this).Got woken at 06:00 with someone vacuuming outside our door. Cereals, toast and jam for brekkie.I'm sure the pub appeal suits some people, but not our cup of tea sadly.Have stayed in far quieter pup accommodations before now...I know you get what you pay for, but I don't think so this time...
