Disgusting pit of a place. Upon arriving to book in, we were 'greeted' by this surly, miserable old goat, that remained in the same mood until we left. Filthy sink and toilet. No power shower - and the water was barely lukewarm. Towels stank of damp and cigarette smoke. Doors banging very loudly at all times of the day. WIFI stopped working and the staff couldn't care less about repairing it. Not worth 55 per night in the slightest! Since leaving, we have spoken to other people who don't rate the hovel at all. Avoid at all costs folks!

Exactely what it says on the tin. A budget hotel with no frills. Service at reception was warm and friendly. Hotel a bit run down but clean. Room compact but functional. Had a kettle and selection of tea and coffee. Shower OK but lacking in power, toilet kept running for a long time after I'd flushed it. Room very clean, bring your own pillow - only one supplied and was very thin. Free parking. Overall good value for money and I would stay again if in the area

I dislike leaving negative reviews, but the Elmhurst Hotel is subpar. What really irritated we was that the room was infested with bedbugs. I woke up with bites and found one in my bed. The room was not really clean and from what I could tell, the shared shower wasn't cleaned for the entire week I was there. The walls are paper thin so you can hear the person in the next room snoring and the person a few doors down coughing.
There was a small animal (I'm guessing it was a rodent) scurrying around at night in the space above the ceiling. On the positive side, the breakfast is okay. The price is attractive, but I would gladly have paid more for a cleaner environment.

Four star rating for what you get. Hotel staff helpful, breakfast very nice, menu for the evening meals looks like a decent selection. Rooms a bit on the small side, but tea/coffee and a TV, in a shared Toilet/shower room, but nice and clean and plenty of hot water. Beds made every day with clean towels. If you want to do Reading on a budget and you're prepared for what you get, you can't go wrong

The hotel is fine. A bit on the pricey side for quality though. Rooms are clean but the whole place needs some updating and painting done. Staff are polite and always helpful if there's a problem. Breakfast was adequate and served at a good time for contractors and early risers. Would stay here again if I'm working in the area.
