The Executive Inn
Slight mix up on check in. They had me booked for 2 rooms despite only booking 1 but the staff assured it would be taken care of. Good hotel close to nearby football stadium, pubs and clubs. Had everything I needed for the night.

Jesmond Executive Villas
No pay tv although the listing said it was available. I couldn’t cast from my phone to the tv as the tv wasn’t compatible and needed to update the server. Contacted staff and they were no help at all regarding this.
