Reviews
"Rooms weren't what me and my partner booked. Someone walked into our hotel room while we were in there. Wouldn't go there again as windows would not open either when it got hot overnight. Very rude staff. Seen all the rude replies on here maybe fix your customer service."
"Excellent night at The Eastern, being entertained by Neil Hamburger and Dr El Suavo. The rooms are great value for money, clean, comfortable and warm. The bathrooms are shared facilities, but there was never any wait to use as there are plenty to go around. Highly recommend staying here, if you don't mind a place with a bit of character."
"Worst stay ever! Dodgy part of town,graffiti everywhere and cameras,looks like drug central Loud obnoxious guests that kept me up all night in the corridors with no respect Worst experience of my life! DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS PLACE WHAT SO EVER!"
"If you are looking for a cheap place to stay, save your money and sleep in your car. Excessively loud from the venue downstairs, the noise rattled through every item on the walls and it was until after midnight. Location was close enough to the city centre 3 - 4 blocks. Great coffee place downstairs to wake myself up from the sleep I didn't get."
"I stayed last night and btw the train , the non stop alarm and the homeless housos screaming I only got a lucky hour of sleep. If you decide to go to this hotel don't forget your earplugs."
