There was an internal door in the room that gave access to the room next door, which made it possible to hear clearly what was happening on the other side of the wall. I don't recommend it if you want a quiet night's sleep. Other than that, the hotel staff was very friendly.

Sporties has everything you need at a great price, a private bathroom, your own room with a fan, a TV and a fridge. Geoff, who runs Sporties, is a great guy who is friendly, helpful and extremely kind. He allowed me to check in early so I wouldn't have to carry my bags around and sent me a precious photo I accidentally left when I had to leave early for a day trip. Thank you Geoff !

Nice enough, streetlights shining through the shades and reflecting on the mirror kept the room bright at night. People trying to get through the connecting doors several times. Still a nice place.

Its a budget accommodation premise, an old public house, with seperate but not shared "shower / toilet" facilities, bed linen and provided towels very clean and fresh, water pressure and hot water VERY variable, often runs cold, so not the best. Depending on room location, can be very noisy, as on main road. Access and stairs to upper floor very steep and could be problematic for older people, doesn't appear to have any disabled access to any second floor rooms. Smells a little musky and I remember on a previous overnight stay,the mice/rats under the floor kept me up all night and I wasn't very comfortable with them running amuck under the floor under my bed ... hope this has been resolved! It's cheap and the beer is cold and the meals downstairs are quite good ... OK for an overnighter, but wouldn't want to have an extended stay. Never leave valuables in the room as the door hardware is not very secure and the quality of the locks make for easy pickings!

I am very disappointed with the behaviour of the staff. It is written there is air conditioner in each room but there is none. No ensuite, you have to walk all the way out to the bathroom. Poor customer service. After hours number didn't pickup the phone not even called back.

Firstly, the room is absolutely disgusting. There are still previous guests’ hair on the sheet and significant amount of spit on the ground. Secondly, the reception is extremely lazy. Guests should go across a long, dark and narrow corridor to get outside the hotel after 5 p.m. Thirdly, most of the residents here are not “backpackers”. They are probably homeless junkies who made poisonous loud noises during midnight. Finally, the shared bathroom are also sickly disgusting. Drunken people are vomiting in the sink and toilet, no hotel staff are going to clean it. DO NOT BOOK THIS HOTEL!!!

Location excellent. No A/C is criminal. Tea / coffee making facilities essential as a start. No curtain in shower / toilet looking directly to street is totally unacceptable. Can’t even keep the windows of a non-a/c room open. Easy fix so fix it. Female staff were exceptionally lovely.

Better than expected
Everything you need. The staff were all excellent and very accommodating. Bed was comfy. It was a little inconvenient to have the bathroom down the hall but totally fine, given the price. The only minor issue I had was with the shower, it took a long time to get going with hot water at a flow higher than a dribble and seemed to be affected by other people using the hot water in other rooms as it went cold a few times too.
