    Great central location with a lively atmosphere

    I had a lovely stay with a comfy room and the decor was really cozy. The location is perfectly central, making it easy to explore the area. The bar was bustling with karaoke night, which added to the fun, but be prepared for noise if you're not an early sleeper. It's a pity there's no food on-site, but there are plenty of restaurants nearby.

    clean room
    comfy amenities
    noise disturbances
    fire alarm
    bathroom maintenance

    Clean, comfy room with good amenities. Value for money is decent given the overall experience.

    Noise levels at night were unbearable, especially with arguments going on at 4am. A fire alarm went off due to someone smoking in the toilets, adding to the already chaotic atmosphere. The shared bathroom could use some maintenance, and not having a private shower option was a big drawback.

    Be warned about noise levels. locals can be quite vocal late into the night. I experienced disturbances from karaoke and late-night chatter that affected my sleep quality.

    lively atmosphere
    lack of dining options

    The hostel's central location made exploring Gainsborough effortless, and the lively karaoke night added vibrancy to the atmosphere, creating an enjoyable experience despite the lack of on-site dining.

    improved soundproofing

    The lively bar atmosphere was a highlight, and we really appreciated how the staff accommodated our late check-out request. the decor had a charming touch that made our stay delightful.

    Super cozy rooms in a perfect central spot! Karaoke night was a blast, and I hardly heard a peep inside my room.

    Recommend for a weekend stopover

    Clean room, comfortable bed, perfect location, as I enjoyed the cozy decor while taking advantage of the free Wi-Fi in the public areas. this hotel is ideally situated near various restaurants and just a short drive from the nearest airport.

    No negatives to report.

    I stayed in the Standard Twin Room with Shared Bathroom for 3 nights. The room was really nice and well laid out. I appreciated that they changed our room to help us avoid noise from the karaoke night. The bed was comfortable, and it felt cozy overall.

    clean room

    It was just a fine choice for a city break in Gainsborough with best value. The room was basic but clean, making it a decent stay. Just be aware of noise levels on weekends if you're a light sleeper.
