Reception staff were extremely helpful in moving us to another room for our second night owing to early morning noise from kitchen fans

The hotel definitely needs upkeep and maintenance. The windows would not stay closed, walls had holes, it was extremely dark and musty, and the paint was peeling.

Christmas at the Parkside International
Staff are so friendly and will help with anything. Room clean and spacious. We could take our dogs which was brilliant! Tea and coffee making facilities. A bath as well as a shower. Fantastic! To make it perfect we would like a fridge in the room and a safe for our money etc. Apart from that it was great.

Souless atmosphere, felt rather like a sanatorium. Rugs in bar badly needed cleaning. Room was comfortable, just smelt a bit

On the whole a very enjoyable stay at the Hotel. Booked because of it been pet friendly which many are not these days. Only real downside was that I believe there should be a small fridge in the room and also was let down slightly that there was no sink plug but managed to adapt the bath one to work

The plumbing leaked. There was no iron in the room. There was no food served on a Friday night, nor over the weekend. The room looked tired.

Rooms are a decent size and on a warm day it was nice to have wi does that opened. Carpets had crumbs on when we arrived and reception smelled of smoke due to receptionist smoking by front doors.

Ideal basic hotel.
I’ve stayed here multiple times. It a nice clean, reasonably priced, no frills hotel. I stay here when I’m down training my search dogs, and the hotel is perfectly happy to have well behaved dogs in the rooms at no extra charge - perfect.

Budget hotel, just about ok.
The hotel boasts of a nice location. On entry it looks like a building site. There is debris and temporary fencing all over the place. The reception was nice. The receptionist was in jeans and a T shirt, no uniform. We were told that there was no bar service until 18:00hrs. Our room was large, clean and comfortable. The outlook was on to a grotty courtyard full of cigarette butts. The window had no block on it, it opened fully. The bathroom was fine, but old. The basin light did not work. Towels were nice and provided toiletries were very good. We did sleep well albeit there was a lot of noise from an adjacent room early in the morning. We did have a drink at the bar. It was fine but the bar person was dressed as if for a nightclub. Very short dress and extremely high shoes. No thought for corporate image. In all it was budget and not great but it catered for our needs and we slept well.

Good value hotel
Friendly, helpful staff. Comfortable bed, generous sized room. Vegetarian breakfast excellent. Ate in one night, basic menu - mains only - but food good. Downside is that restaurant lacked any sort of atmosphere. Would stay there again
