There was no staff at the front desk!! The place was old but the room was bigger then normal rooms. No restaurants near by. Noisy street out front!

Many thanks for leaving the review. Sorry it doesn't sound like you enjoyed your stay as much as you should have. As advertised our front desk is not 24/7. However, there is always someone on hand should you require anything. This information is made clear on check in or before arrival. We have a work mobile which is always answered and also a ring doorbell. Often the shutters are down yet we are around cleaning / attending the garden etc . Even over night someone is onsite for emergencies. There are many eateries nearby. I could recommend 5/6 restaurants / pubs to eat witithn 1 mile or so from us, with all their menus and contact details located in our foyer. The noisy drain is apparently scheduled to be dealt with later this month thankfully. Hopefully we can welcome you back now you have this information to hand
Many thanks for the review. Sorry you didn’t enjoy your stay this time. We understand a shared bathroom maybe isn’t for you. But some people like a cheaper clean room. Warm Bed with complimentary free tea coffee and just a place to sleep it’s perfect. Next time you stay , maybe you may prefer the rooms with en-suite. Much larger and own shower and bathroom.
I got a single room with a shared bathroom and it was great for the price. After being in hostels for the past week it was luxury to be able to shut and lock my door. Was clean and quiet
I was greeted with a smile from a lovely lady and her daughter putting up a xmas tree by check in. I couldn't ask for anything better. I'll certainly be staying there again 😁

So very glad you enjoyed your stay . We will look forward to welcoming you again soon !
I liked its convenient closeness to the Forest of Dean which is filled with wonderful walks and picnic spots.
My personal favorite is the River Severn and its docks with it's many moods and long river-side walks. There is now a cafe and toilets there.

Disliked: Amenities
Room wasn’t serviced on our second day. Was told it’s due to covid and they only service rooms if requested. That’s ok if they tell you about this policy; it’s very difficult when you need toilet rolls and toiletries replenishing. A simple notice in the room is all that is required. The room was ‘clean’ but would benefit from an occasional deep clean

Many thanks for the review. We brought this in at the start of Covid and have kept it in place as majority of gusts like the system. We don’t feel a notice needs to be in place - a hanging sign is left obviously in room which says please service room. If this is left on door the room Is serviced. Seems a simple and effective method with no explanation needed. We also leave plenty of tea etc and towels to cover the full stay so not needed. Including toilet rolls - usually one one whole roll per day a couple is sufficent. We hope we can welcome you back soon
Had a double room which had bad stains on the carpet and chairs, the bathroom wasn’t clean and the silicone around the shower was black and mouldy. Could here the people on both sides of the walls talking and watching television as I doubt there’s any insulation between the walls, whole place needs a makeover!
Easy to find, Excellent condition inside and out, Did not have breakfast so cannot comment. Otherwise very impressed. Also short 5 minute walk to a pub.
Perfect for what I wanted. A one night stay in a clean comfortable room. I didn’t sample the continental breakfast but then again there was no information as to what it comprised of.
We stayed for one night as we was attending a music event nearby.
The stay was enjoyable the room and motel itself and grounds were very clean and accessible to the town.
The manager on arrival was friendly and very helpful with any questions or requests.
We would stay again 🙂
Neat & Tidy. Ideal for my business stay of just me. Beware, and nothing directly to do with the hotel, but booking a taxi before 10am is impossible, no uber, all the private hires on school runs
