I arrived in need of a hot shower and found the shower broken. No way of regulating the temperature and the water was scolding hot i had started to shower so my hair was wet. There was no way to shower due to the temperature so i then tried to dry my hair only to find the hairdryer did not work. No heating in the room so wrapped my wet hair in a towel and slept with cold wet hair all night. Noone on reception. Absolutely appaling. Want a refund and to warn others

This place stank of cannabis at the door so I walked away and booked elsewhere. Not surprisingly, they refuse to refund. The police and environmental health have been requested to help.
I'm not that desperate for £80 but they won't get it without a fight!

It was awful. Too noisy to sleep well. To be fair it was cheap and was all that was available with Reading being so busy. The man at reception was polite and nice natured but the place was horrendous. Go into this place with your eyes open.
