The Poppies Albert

The bathrooms are pristine and the shower has perfect temperature. I read lots of bad reviews but people were being over dramatic! The beds are very comfy and there’s two sinks and two mirrors! The games room is fabulous and has so many different activities to keep you busy. Breakfast and lunch is lovely.

The rooms are a good size for a small group of friends, and are kept nice and clean. There are 2 large sinks and mirrors which are outside of the bathroom which works well. There’s also a big games room that has table tennis, giant chess, darts etc and two outdoor areas for football and basketball plus picnic benches which were nice for playing card games. I saw lots of bad reviews before I came here and then me and my friends got to the room and realised how much they were all exaggerated.

this hotel/ hostel has so much to offer, and the staff are so kind! the rooms are extremely clean and spacious considering we have 5 people in here. the games room has loads to offer and we had lots of fun in the garden. breakfast was very good also with lots to offer.

Great place to stay! Laura and her team are so welcoming and friendly. We stayed there as a school group for one night - the rooms were spotlessly clean, the food was amazing and the organisation was perfect. Thank you, Laurinda and team 😁

it was horrible, there were bugs on the floor and bugs in the beds, i even found a baby rat inside the shower, it was utterly vile and i feel sick after eating there. there was also white stains on my bedsheets, the windows barely open and the rooms are muggy, i dont recommend

i want to start this by saying that this is a fair review, i will state both the positives and the negatives. On the positive side, there is a games room, and it is a good one at that. It has a pool table, basketball hoop, table tennis table and a connect four thingy. There also is a vending machine, which has good options in it, however you can only buy one thing at a time. On to the negatives. The rooms are sub par, see photos attached, they make you make your beds, which wouldn't be such a problem if the covers fitted the bed sheets, and the mattress cover doesn't have any corners to hold it down, so in the night you will feel the rubbery under-sheet. The toilet seat is good for the ladies, but when you try to lift it up, it comes right off, as shown in my picture attached. The ladders for the beds are too far to the right, and one of the radiators blocks the ladder, and when exiting the bed, you have to precariously balance off of the side, as shown in a picture attached. The sink is too far in, which admittedly is not much of a problem if the water pressure wasn’t so iffy, but it isn’t that big of a deal. The ceiling has black dots on it which look a bit like mould but i’m not sure (see in pictures attached). This is not entirely their fault but the food that they had delivered was very late (approx 30 mins) but that was due to unforeseen roadworks so not really their fault. In all i’m not sure if i would recommend this hotel, but all of the things i mentioned are fixable, and this review is for making you aware of improvements to be made.
