small but modern, clean and tidy. Checkin issues.

small but modern rooms in a new place, very close to the station. Downsides were that checkin app doesnt really work with hotels.com or expedia so I couldnt get in touch with them until I arrived. And the wifi signal is terrible, needs more bandwidth. But nice people, once you finally get a hold of them.

Room 10 to avoid

Pros first: The room was clean and had an amazing number of power outlets and lights. The folding desk was nice too. Shower worked well. Cons: The room feels unfinished, or at the minimum poorly designed. The biggest issue is that the bathroom contains a very loud extractor fan which can still clearly be heard when the door is closed. There is no way to turn off this fan and it is on 24 hours a day. Even worse, the fan is not beefy enough to do much in the way of ventilating the shower cubby/ room so the room quickly becomes damp. Sucks all around! Other issues: * pillows are garbage * no mirror above washbasin, instead it is near the door below a shelf? * The "automated" checkin system did not work at all and so had to do this process with a staff member who was helpful but talked in a barely audiable mumble.

A good place for overnight stay

It was just an overnight stay but comfortable and homey. Small luggage doesn't fit in the locker and have to carry it with our tours instead.

Perfect for what we done

Me and my partner stayed in this hotel for 1 night as it was a quick base for going out that night. The room was very spacious and clean the only let down i would say is you'll never get a lay in as the walls are very thin and you can hear every footstep and the shower was very slow and took a long time to heat up. other than that it was okay

Property was nothing like the images shown. Extremely dirty and sticky floors and dirty carpet. Bathroom soap dispenser did not work. Was not replaced even though I informed the reception. Had to buy my own soap to use. Left my charger in the room, but hotel tells me that I didn't. This was my fault. I can't blame them for my leaving it there, but I'm surprised they say they didn't find it. I can only assume that another guest took it before I complained the next day. They did find another adapter in the room and offered to post it to me.

wouldn't describe as a hotel

would question this being called a hotel. It's more like a b&b from 20 years ago. The carpets are worn on the stairs and in my opinion dangerous. My room was dirty,had a broken bed,and even the remote was broken. It was cold with no wardrobe! Had issues with the door,the code wouldn't work. The staff member on duty was some help,but with so many issues i wouldn't recommend staying there. My room even though being a single was the size of a childs room. For the same amount of money two two days before i had stayed in a boutique hotel in nottingham. Fenners does not provide value for money,and needs a major refurb.
