I arrived late (after midnight) and was met by a super nice manager who got me sorted. The room was clean and spacious. It was on the front side of the hotel so traffic noise was inevitable in the morning.

We were charged £95 for one night for a twin room with no breakfast, the room first offered was right at the back (in the backyard), it felt cold, damp and dark and had a smoking area right outside- so it smelt of smoke and people stood by the door smoking and talking loudly on the phone! It seemed like an old garage- though the decor was good! we asked to be moved. The staff were amazing and gave us a room upstairs but it became apparent that this was a children’s extension to another room, with a locked door between, but there was no soundproofing between the rooms or under the door- everything was heard both ways! The rooms looked like they had been recently refurbished but the beds were very small and I didn’t sleep at all well as I was uncomfortable! The staff wanted to offer a refund but as we had booked through Expedia they could not! They advised us to ask Expedia for a refund! I would not pay more than £60 for either of these rooms!! I hope this message gets through to someone- I will be seeking a refund!

Convenient location for our trip. (the good thing) Not sure what rooms they show on their website. We booked a double premium room !!, but the 3 we were shown were very tatty and below the normal standard expected for the price. Bathroom smelt, everything in the room was very cheap. Wont be staying again.

Good for a cheap central stay
Good central stay for Taunton, perfect for the cricket. Friendly staff and the conditions reflect the price, but it I was perfectly adequate. Slight issue with the shower constantly changing from hot to cold but nothing too bad

No frills
The location is good. I was also very impressed at how cool my room was despite it being a heatwave. Bed was comfortable and shower was nice and hot. However there were some disappointing features. The decorative cushion on the bed had stains on it. So did the fabric chair and the rest of the furniture is old and worn. I was on the ground floor and there was lots of noise from other guests / doors slamming in the corridor as well a courtyard outside where the noise from other rooms echoed despite my window being fully closed. The room smelt weird too. It’s a basic no frills stay if you need to be close to the train station but I won’t be rushing back.
