Birchfields Guest House

The facilities are average and the hygiene is good

nice room

Don’t stay here. It’s disgustingly filthy. Even if you’re desperate, sleep in a doorway or a bus shelter, it will be cleaner. I got there too late to book anywhere else The sheets hadn’t been changed, so had to “sleep” sitting up in my clothes as there was no way I way lying down on that, there were empty crisp packets under the bed, the whole room was covered in mould, there was a back door that had obviously been smashed and was boarded up. I’ve seen squats that were cleaner. Haven’t responded to complains, obvs happy they got the money and don’t care.

Worst guest house Absolutely poor night’s stay the room was dirty the mattress was stained can see mould on the walls rooms look nothing like in the pictures I spent most of the night sat on the chairs in the room as bed was to dirty to sleep on

Wouldn’t consider The room smelt really bad. There was hairs and ashes on the bed and stains on the pillows and towels.

Could do better for the price Walked in and there was a smell that lingered on especially in the corridor throughout my stay. As a solo traveller I didn’t feel safe as I found two people stood at the entrance as I was checking in As for cleanliness goodness me a bit of paint would do. Plus some laundry services press beddings or buy beddings that don’t show terrible creases which straight away are off putting as they looked like unclean bedding I wasn’t expecting a five star service for the price I paid but equally it is not nice finding an empty water bottle under the bed clearly from the last guest. It’s not the hotels fault but finding the toilet not flashed a few times was off putting. Thank goodness I had my shower gel and apologies if this was not part of the deal but all I found was men’s shampoo left from past guests am guessing. My door lock was lose and this added to my feeling a bit unsafe. I stay in quite a few air b and bs and apartments but unfortunately this made me feel a bit unsafe. For the value paid I at least expected good cleanliness, fresh smell and a feeling of safety. I love running and whenever I go to new places I take my running gear. On this occasion I felt unsafe to go for a run in the neighbourhood. Thank you 🙏
