Shame that this place has gone down hill
We have stayed at the Gamston Lock on many occasions and always found it to be a decent place. However this time it had gone down hill dramatically. The room was dirty, hairs in the bath that we had to clean before we could use it, hairs under the toilet seat even in the sink and on the bedding. There was only one bath towels so one of us had to use a hand towel when we came out of the shower. The table in the room was dirty and in need of a good wipe. One of the cups was dirty and needed washing. The main automatic door in to the hotel area was broken and was left open all night even though there is no reception area or anyone to keep an eye on it. There was a coke bottle dumped in that area that was there for the duration. In the morning when we went to the restaurant for breakfast there was a huddle of staff in the corner of the restaurant, one of which was on a very loud video call with someone so the whole restaurant could hear. Someone decided to wash the floor in a busy thoroughfare through the toilets which made it absolutely lethal, regardless of whether they put a sign out, they should have been doing this before the restaurant opened.

MThank you for your review Sorry you felt the room was not to our normal standards.The main doors are waiting to be repaired and parts are on order, we have a night porter on from 10.30pm and 6.30am so the security of the building is safe We have to clean the pub while customer are in as we open at 7am for breakfast, and has you said we always ensure that wet floor signs are up as per health and safety regulations Terry and the Team

Fantastic value for money
We needed a night stop prior to an early hospital appointment and this great value option was the nearest accommodation. On the plus side, amazing value: free parking: adequate dining next door: fantastic free wifi: modern amenities in the room: quality tea and coffee. On the not so good side: a musty smell in the bathroom: bed OK, but not as comfortable as a Premier Inn: carpet and walls marked here and there: noise from surrounding room, but this is the norm in this type of accommodation.

Quiet, clean comfortable stay
Stayed two nights, nice big car park, quiet clean comfortable rooms. Only observation was that whilst the air conditioning worked very well it was very noisy with a constant gurgling water noise. Didn’t have breakfast but dinner was pretty decent. Friendly efficient staff. Would definitely stay again.
