The Albemarle Hotel

Apr 8th, 2023

We stayed here thankfully for only one night! I booked this based on it said they had parking available, as id searched loads of hotels in the area with this criteria. When arrived there was no parking available and found it was only street parking, ran by the council with a pay metre that only allowed for 3 hour stays. I purchased a parking ticket from the hotel for the next day, but I had to put one on the evening too. The man we met on arrival was very creepy and made my mam, myself and daughter uncomfortable. I went to move my car when there was a space available and the man showed my mam the room which didn't have a private bathroom and was a sharing communal one. Which did not state this on booking as said private ensuite in bedroom as pictures shown too. Not ideal with a young child. There was no washing facilities eg showers that we were made aware of and made us feel extremely dirty. No good for longer than one night stay. It mentioned there was a free breakfast included nothing was mentioned about this nor was there any food been cooked on the morning but we just wanted to leave as soon as possible. The man proceeded when my mam took my daughter to the toilet pretended like he was coming over all faint in the other shared bathroom with the door open. Also outside our door there was another man who seemed he lived there intoxicated and under the influence of drugs. We didn't get why when our door wasn't near anyone else. We stayed in that room all night and didn't leave. There was a lot of fighting it seemed on the street. Upon leaving the man who showed us around kept hiding behind the corner and watching us and this was a regular theme with the unsavoury man that was sitting outside when we arrived and when due to leave just watching us. The man who im assuming the owner wanted to parking ticket back even though I'd paid and so I went back to my car and upon giving it back he was hiding behind the corner again. Such Norman bates vibes. I've never stayed in a worse hotel and I think the bathroom situation should be made clearer, aswell as parking. Also there wasn't any WiFi as it didn't work. Everything they claimed they didn't deliver. I'd never return! Only plus was the bed was comfortable
