Love people’s hospitality, concerning behaviours and open minded attitudes for foreigners. Thank you so much.
Dilsad, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

I've stayed a few times recently while working in the area. Accommodation is fairly basic, but comfortable beds, clean, warm and a great little restaurant onsite with nice food. Ideal for a few days stop.
Dean, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Our arrival felt unwelcome when we checked in. Our room smelled a bit damp and was generally quite dirty. Lots of cobwebs, the bathroom was especially dirty with lots of mould around the window and bath. I would not recommend going bare foot either. We had breakfast, which was okay but not good value for money. The location for Durham is good, but that's about it.

Great Value

Pleasant hotel, very motel like which i thought was good, straight to your room after being out instead of the usual trailing through reception and up flights of stairs, great parking too, right outside your door. Great value for money.
