When I booked on booking.com I informed the hotel I’d be there at 10pm and left my email and phone number. They closed at 9pm didn’t contact me or even atempt to! It’s situated on a road that is heavily involved in class a drugs being used and sold right out side of the premises! As the undercover police who pulled at next to me informed me on the doorstep of the hotel!! I was left on the backstreets of a heroine riddled middlesbourgh council estate at 10pm with no clue to what was happening or where I was! Avoid this place at all costs!!!!!!

Zero stars! A heroine and crack paradise !

I booked a room via booking.com and found it to be the worst place I have ever paid to stay in. Firstly I had to pick a key up from another property. I then drove to the Gresham and found it to be located in a dubious neighbourhood. Drunk men walking by with carrier bags of alcohol, kids screaming and running up and down, Windows boarded up in some houses, noisy, dirty and I felt unsafe. It gets worse...I entered the property to find it has several rooms and a shared kitchen and it smelt grimey and dirty. Had a feel of a shared student property. Went into the room books which was on the ground floor, and every noise from the street could be heard, it was a pokey room and was dirty. Walls were stained, bedding and mattress stunk and then I entered the toilet. I nearly threw up!!! Hadn’t been cleaned and someone had left a scene from Trainspotter!! I couldn’t bear to take photos and rang the staff. I honestly felt queezy! Was told I had to drive back and collect another key to a different room, no offer of recompense at all. The staff member refused to come out to me. When I went to the office a second member of staff had appeared too and just scowled at me making me feel uncomfortable (maybe the manager or landlord) . He looked like a bald headed bouncer. Changed rooms..but again  dirty and  smelly, the whole property felt unhygienic and very cheap and nasty. I couldn’t bear it and had to go online using my own internet as their WiFiwas intermittent. Paid a great deal more to get a last minute booking nearby. I texted the member of staff on duty (Holly I think) and told her I was leaving as I was disappointed. She didn’t even respond let alone apologise or offer me a refund! Was totally disgusted from start to finish. Clearly the landlord is all about making money and has no interest in the experience of guests. The number of poor reviews they have had says it all. I think you would be better off in a hostel than their property. Book at your own risk because I couldn’t wait to get out of there it honestly made me feel miserable and unsafe. Diabolical place urrrrrgh!

God awful place

This is a real estate agency hiring rooms in a house with about 5 other rooms. Check-in can only be done after 4 PM, for cleaning reasons, but I'm not sure what they're cleaning. The room was small, the bathroom even smaller and not very clean. The bed was actually an expandable couch, a bit broken in the middle. When I complained about cleanliness, they were just staring at me. The place is close to the city centre, but looks a bit dangerous after nightfall. I've stayed far better in camp sites, with cleaner facilities and at cheaper prices...

Only recommended if there's no other option...

Firstly the key arrangement is rather odd as you have to report to an estate agent office first. As the Gresham has no reception but once you understand it. It's okay. And don't forget to have £25 cash ready for the damage deposit. Back to the rooms. It's a new building in a rather rough area but no one seems that bothersome. 

Once inside you will notice a kitchen which is fully equipped so you can prepare your meals. An added bonus is the washing machine. The rooms have an en suite which is tiny but adequate. The bedroom area is small but you're not here to admire the room. But you can hear everything and the ground floor rooms are next to the pavement which has noise and privacy issues. 

Close to town and bus stops. There's a Wetherspoon nearby with a Tesco express and Iceland for your grocery needs. You're also on the Linsthorpe road which has a selection of ethnic eateries, bars and a large park with a museum. I would return as I want a room that's fairly central, with full facilities and decent room rates. The shabbiness of the locality isn't my problem. 

Well priced product but it's not great. 

This is student accomodation. My group of friends chose this as we are a large group. The rooms smelt of sewage, smoke and damp. 

The road getting to this place is dodgey and unsafe. The property management company where you have to go to collect the keys are rude and unprofessional.

One of the toilets when flushed, flooded the shower. One shower didnt drain and so flooded the shower. 

We complained to booking.com and marched over to holiday inn express. Dont take the risk with this place.
