I left and didn't stay as i felt scared as there was 2 intoxicated adults arguing and shouting on front doorstep, it's a hotel with lots of homeless people staying there, i had to find safer accommodation

Great value
For the price it was fantastic, good freshly cooked breakfast and friendly staff. We would definitely be back.
The hotel was a one-night stopover. With that in mind, I found the hotel conveniently situated, the staff were pleasant & helpful, & I had a good night's sleep.
Corridirs and room hsd a terrible stench. Bed was dirty. Bathroom sink had mould. Breakfast was cold and iver cooked. Jad to eait 30 nins on breakfast. All in all a bit disappointed
The hotel is dated, but considering the price it was great. The bed was comfortable, with clean sheets and the shower was hot with plenty of water. It has ample free parking and a 24 hour desk for late check in.

Outside there is no reference to Ox hotel, had to double check it was the right place at reception. The guy on reception was very helpful. Parking is good, give registration to reception and its free for guests.
The room was basic with plain white walls and a few paint marks on the carpet, big bed, but the bedding wasn't fresh, as if it had been slept in before. We got the pillows changed as they didnt smell fresh, the replacement pillows were ok.
Breakfast was good, buffet type with reasonable choice.
If the bed was fresh and room cleaner my rating would have been higher.
