If I could give this place a 0 I would. We booked for 14 nights due to a work trip. We ended up spending 1 night in this hotel and left. It was filthy, it was horrid and it was just not up to any standards of a hotel. It seemed like a half way house - disgusting. I have attached some photos. We requested a refund for the 14 days as we only did one day here and we weren't allowed a refund. Expedia wouldn't even refund us. We will not be using Expedia ever again. Do not allow your kids or family to stay here. Absolute dump. Needs knocking down and starting again.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Wasn't obvious where to enter the building. Wasn't made clear that there would be no-one to greet. Upon calling number on the door, the greeting still wasn't friendly. On opening the bedroom.door, first impression was good - tidy, and additional heater (previous accommodation elsewhere was cold!). During my stay, more and more details became apparent and uncomfortable: *Only half a toilet roll, without a holder (so had been previously handled by user(s)), *Only one mug although the room was booked for two people *Barely any coffee (although plenty of tea) *kettle was half-full of water (don't know how old) *carpet had clearly not been vacuumed *Upon getting in to bed (a rather lumpy one), I noticed the bedding smelt badly of mens BO (possibly the quilt, thru to cover, but it was strong) *The single bed (although not booked) had slept-in bedding on *No mention of WiFi anywhere

Not impressed - couldn't get in - stayed elsewhere

I ended up not staying! On arrival (after a long journey, feeling wet and tired), I spent half an hour standing outside the front door, constantly ringing the phone number on the piece of paper stuck to the door! There was never any answer, and no answer machine, and I could hear the phone ringing inside the hotel, but could see no one. Eventually, a resident at the hotel kindly let me in the front door, and suggested I ring the emergency number, which was displayed on a wall inside. Again, there was no answer, and I left a message on the answer service. I also rang the contact number for the hotel given by hotels.com but again there was no answer, and I left a message. Just as I was about to leave, a cleaner turned up and kindly booked me in and took me to my room. The heating was not on so she said she would turn it on. By this point, I was late for a meeting, so had to leave quickly. I returned later in the evening to find the heating was not on, and knowing it would be impossible to find anyone to sort it out, as well as feeling very uncomfortable and unwelcome in the hotel, I decided to leave and stay elsewhere. If they are going to have a system where you are going to have a phone number on the door to come in, they need to make sure the number works. The cleaner knew that the phone wasn't diverting to the correct number, so why wasn't an alternative number given? Not impressed. Waste of money.

Visit to Hartlepool

The hotel was good value for money . I had visited this hotel about 10 years and I remember having bed and breakfast ,a full English breakfast in the restaurant. However on my latest visit that all closed . In fact when I got to the door a notice gave me a telephone number to ring so as to.gain entry . It was however adaquate for my two day stay in the town.

In the middle of a badly needed refurb.

The hotel was halfway through a much needed refurbishment, however this meant duvets filled corridors, wet paint on multiple walls and there were still electrical fittings hanging off the walls (including, rather disconcertingly the shower fan switch dangling over the bath). That said, the room was a good size and the staff were friendly.

This dump should be shut down

Upon arrival I had to ring a number stuck on the door to get the code to get in and told my room number. No reception, no staff in the building. The whole place stunk of weed and stale smoke. Absolutely filthy, not been cleaned in years. No toilet roll in my room and when I finally got through to someone on the phone I was told someone would bring some at 5pm this was at 2.30. I'd say you get what you pay for but the state of the place I feel I should have been paid to stay there. Bed was really lumpy and the pillows was as thin as paper and was filthy. People banging about all night. One of the windows in my room was missing the handle so couldn't close it. No heating or hot water.
