Although I booked for riverside, we were put in one of their other accommodations. Staff were excellent.Room was very nice, very clean and comfortable beds.Tea/coffee facilities in room, always good to have. Toiletries and towels. Shower was good, but only downside, it flooded the bathroom floor, as doors didn’t close properly.

It took us a while to find where the bathroom light switch was. But the only problem was that it was to high for my friend to reach it. So maybe a good idea is to have a pole left in the room. so smaller people can reach it. Apart from that everything else was good

Stayed for one night in January after being let down by closed down Central hotel next door. Amazingly they had a triple room available at very short notice. Checked into Riverside B&B although you are taken across the road to another building. Soon as you walk in very strong smell of damp despite recently painted. Room three single beds did the job for three lads. Wouldn’t take my misses here.

Strong smell of damp

Terrible stay, tried calling the property before we left to find out about parking arrangements, no answer. We arrived 30 mins before check in and tried calling the duty manager 10+ times on his office and moble phone but no answer, rang the bell as instructed, no answer so had to go do our own thing tried calling twice more from 1330 hours, no answer. Then he called us at around 5 pm to ask when we thought we would be arriving.... When we was finally given access to the property it was very shabby in the communal areas. I am not sure this was being used exclusively as a hotel as there was families in the building with their very young children running around the communal areas at 10pm at night and people cooking in what seemed to be a shared kitchen area which was not mentioned in the info on the site. The manager was phoned again as the children were playing and shouting right our room door whilst their mother was cooking dinner and dishes on the sink, they was asked to be quiet bit didny understand what we was sayinh.The room was noisy as there was traffic all night. The room was acceptable in clenliness and comfort but i have just felt very misled in the description of the property when we booked.

Disgusting service, can you call this a hotel?

We tried to check in at 1pm. No one answered our 10 phone calls or answered the front door. We walked into town and received a phonecall at 5pm asking if we are going to arrive !!
We arrived at 6.15pm and were told it was £5.00 to park which we refused as we had paid a car park from check in time. So was not charged parking. The room was really clean and bed comfy I have no complaints on that score. I am not sure if this place doubles up as a Hostel. A family were staying in the next room x 5 adults and children. They started cooking in a make shift kitchen at 9.30pm kids shouting from 9pm onwards. We called the reception guy who put a stop to it. The room faces the main road and you may as well be sleeping on the pavement as its so noisy . 😴  I can't fault the room but we won't be staying again !!!!


Hotel or Hostel ? Noisy !!!!!

Nice stay, staff friendly, clean room, handy for the railway station and football ground, the room I was in was on the top floor whch has a very steep staircase so bear that in mind if you struggle with stairs apart from that I highly recommend this place. Parking is by paying a fee and hotel gives you a parking permit as the streets outside the hotel require  a permit.

Great stay.

Good things first: the staff are lovely but they can only do so much.Bad things: desperately needs renovation. No breakfast. Walls are made of paper. Reception is at the back so you'll hear every single guest come in, snore, fart, and talk loudly into their phones all night. There is no possibility of sleeping.

No sleep

Fantastic location, welcoming staff, helpful, practical and clean room. Nice big shower and quiet neighbours/guests. Will definitely come back here again

Will definitely come back

We booked a night in the riverside guest house. The room cost us £70 including a parking permit. 
When entering the room it smelt damp and was overpowering we thought this was just a case of opening the windows, which we did and went out for the night, when we arrived back the smell was stronger. 
In the room we were advised that if there were any issues with our stay to email them directly to the hotel, which we did, I informed them that we had to sleep with the windows open due to there been no ventilation and an overpowering smell. To which they replied below. 
Baring in mind the conditions they mention towards the end was that I had mentioned that I had asthma and was pregnant and struggled to sleep in the room as it was. 
And according to them I should have made them aware of my ‘condition’ and they would have given us an alternative or cancelled. 

At "Riverside" we have 4 buildings and 9 different types of rooms for the variety of guests with different needs and budget.
When we received this booking on the 2 March 2022, I was asking myself: who are these people, making the reservation so far in advance and selecting our cheapest (our worst) room? All the better rooms were available, and at that time the prices were very low, for a few quid you could have Standard or even Superior room...
General info: ..."Please make sure the type of bed(s) and size of the room(s) you booked suit your needs. Note, there are Small (Economy), Standard and Superior sizes of the rooms. If Small room is selected, please expect it to be smaller than Standard room, one side of the bed against the wall and no view from the window.
When the cheapest room is selected, one should ask: "What kind of people book these rooms and in this area? 
We didn't receive any information about you or your condition in the section "Important info about the guest" or "Special requests" and knew nothing about your sensitivity (nobody else complained about the smell)
If you'd mention your condition on your booking, then we'd advise you to upgrade your room or cancel it altogether.

Kind regards,
Kasey, manager

DO NOT STAY

The room was spotless, shower hot and wifi was excellent. The room itself was a good size for a solo traveller. Location 5 mins walk to train station and town centre. 
The stairs up to the room were extremely narrow (this was mentioned but I think they are unsafe). 
Check-in was awkward, I arrived just after check-in began and was told we weren't expecting you yet (I was 25mins earlier than the time I had said I would arrive). Not the friendliest of check-ins.  
The hallway smelled of cigarettes too. 
But it was cheap and ok for 2 nights.
