Travellers with less money get a good sleepingplace in this hotel, no noise no loud cars. Only "bad" thing was that towels were changed t when we want to save the world and not to wash too much, we could have use the same towels four days. More

I think it's enough good hotel. Not far from a centre, clean and the price of a room is normal. I would stay there the second time again. My friends would stay there also. Thanks. More

Well, I am currently on hold while someone finds out for me how the Hour Glass came to charge me for using a room I cancelled a MONTH before the check in date. Thanks a million guys. Cause I really am rich enough to sustain an unexpected 100euro withdrawal from my bank account. More

I wouldn't go as far as some people in dissing this place. It's a cheap, not-particularly-well-run place in a not-so-nice part of town, but it's not that bad! the people were quite nice and the beer was cold. I won't be back though! More

Myself and my collegue had the great misfortune of being booked to stay at this dreadful slum of a pigsty of a hotel two nights ago and i feel the need to inform anyone thinking of staying here DONT just go anywhere else, stay in a shop front doorway or a back alley, it will be safer and cleaner.

Located in a scene from crimewatch, Bedlam would have been preferable. Words cannot express the Dickensian squalor and' penny a pint gin'-orientated grimness that haunts this place. To get there you have to run the gauntlet of some of the deprived areas the UK has. Communal loos and bathroom add nothing to the charm. On the plus side, the beer... More

15 people on 1 floor sharing 1 bathroom. U do the math! It's horrendous. I wouldn't recommend this to the council, who search for places for the homeless. Plus the area surrounding the pub is like the Bronx in the 80's. I expect my vehicle to be tagged, but even this area is too rough for banksy! More
