Room was clean. Location centre of town. However, no signage of hotel (we drove past it twice and needed to ring hotel for directions). Poor housekeeping- only one towel, one pillow and no cups. Receptionist not helpful.

They are trying to get this hotel better but it is lacking in simple things. No bulbs in the bedside lamps. Can’t reach a socket for one of them or the kettle. No hooks for towels. No wardrobe. No bin only a bin liner. Window won’t open. No cups or teaspoon. Had to ask. 2 flights of stairs and no lift.

Difficult to find the entrance as I couldn’t see any signs as it happens it’s the entrance to the snooker hall you need to take. Building is like a maze inside with room numbers printed in a4 paper with pen. When I got to the room there was a number of chocolate bar wrappers under the bed and a coffee sachet had been opened and discarded next to the kettle by previous occupant. Empty tablet packets in the wardrobe and no blinds in the bathroom.

It started with zero directions on how to get there and then when we did manage to find it. Our room was moldy, shower had open drain. Hallway smoke detectors had bright green light all night and went off after midnight. One cup provided in room was filthy. Coffee pot. No mugs. No soap. Curtain falling off. WiFi unreliable. Could hear our neighbors using their restroom. Open vents in walls. Not hoovered very well. I understand budget hotels, but this was something else. I never leave bad reviews, but I didn’t sleep well in this hotel. It was hands down the worst I’ve ever stayed in. It should be closed till they finish renovations or charge about half the price. I mean. Just. Wow.

The rooms are comfortable and you can tell there have been recent upgrades to the rooms with the furnishings and decor. There are a few areas that you can tell the hotel is working toward fixing like the windows (which don't open easily) and the shower temperature (which was a bit on the cool side) but we found the beds comfortable and the accommodation quite adequate, especially for the price. The staff are very helpful and there is a number to access a person even when reception is closed. The location is a little challenging to find but if you find the location of the Waverley Hotel, beside the church, then you just need to go to the nearest busy corner and the Royal Guesthouse is on that corner. We found it easier to park on the street by the church but there is a parking lot. To identify the hotel, look for the billiards hall sign on the building, as the name is not visible but everyone local knows where the "Royal Hotel" is. The reception is on the second floor, but there is not elevators. I hope that they are able to revive this hotel back to its former grandeur as the city is quite a pleasant one to visit and very walkable with many interesting finds if you venture between the buildings and lots of good shops and character.
