Blaby Hotel

Myself and 2 girlfriends stayed here as attending a 40th party close by, the reception was welcoming and the manager was lovely but that’s the only positive part of the stay. The first ‘family’ room we were given was something out of a horror film. The bed were dirty, the room was dirty, spiders, cobwebs, hair on pillows, stains on duvets, they came to change the beds and that is when we saw the state of the mattress. Even a homeless person wouldn’t have slept on it! We then got moved to 3 doubles, slightly better from the first look, but still not been cleaned for months if ever, dust everywhere, stains on the floors, chairs and walls, the smell in mine was bad and I presume it’s due to the fact I found weed and an empty fag packet in one draw and a pair of knickers behind a cupboard. My friend has hairs and stains in the bathroom and toe nails by her bed. The fact they also serve food worries me.

STAY AWAY FROM THIS HOTEL. In my 43 years of working away, I have never had to break out of an hotel. 7:30, I could not get to reception as the internal corridor door was locked from the other side. The only exit out was through a door blocked by a table and again locked. I had to release the top and bottom latches of the adjoining door to get out. I have reported this to Leicester Fire service for their attention. The small bits No toilet paper ( after the event, pair of socks waisted) No plugs in sink or bath No shower curtain or mat Sour UHT milk The shower mixer did not work The hot water tap on the bath did not open, Tea cups not clean, Plus points It was quiet

Hotel needs updating, not a good appearance from the outside, very overgrown. Hotel room curtains need to be washed and windows cleaned. Mould around the bath. No toiletries supplied, carpets and furniture need a good deep clean. Sheets and towels very white and great condition. Could be a great hotel, just needs updating and general deep cleaning. No one manning the reception.
