Best Western Hotel 99

Big, comfy room, great value, very central location.

Room 44: shower temperature a bit temperamental. No shelves in bathroom at all. Also, if you are over 5'8 and want to shave, good luck doing so in the mirror, which is low.

Exceptionally clean room had everything required

The location

Location was ok - room small but comfortable. Nice shower, tv didn't have any extra stations, hairdryer provided, shampoo and conditioner in bathroom. Fan in room which was a nice touch.

I didn't opt for breakfast - £17 is just way too much for this type of accommodation. The lift is pretty slow. Someone's not always on reception but I get that.

On arrival the doors were shut, so I had to use the buzzer to get in where there was a sign that reception was currently not manned, however a member of staff was there straight away to check me in. The hotel was very quiet, the lift took forever to get to the second floor. The rooms/hotel seems to have recently been redecorated so it was all very clean and fresh.

The bathroom drains seemed to push out quite a horrible smell. There was no aircon or fan in the room and the window (as standard hotels do) only opened slightly. Sadly at about 10pm the local homeless population seemed to have gathered outside the hotel, and so the night was spent listening to loud conversation, shouting/arguments and bottles smashing, I shut the window and could still hear them, and the room was incredibly warm with the lack of fresh air coming in.
