OYO Newcastle West

A review for football away fans ..not couples getaway. Needed a cheap night away for stop over after watching football at St James Park. Long journey back down south We kind of knew what was awaiting,£30 pp So we thought!!! First positives - plenty of free street parking Approx 15-20 min walk to St Jams Park & town centre. Town centre lively and locals friendly. Clean sheets & towels Free Tea or coffee- I think in Bar. Pool table & Bar The Sketchy Bits😳 £10 deposit for room key- cash , not that a key was required as the lock you could have pushed through and opened as per photo, handle was hanging off other side. Handed remote for TV for room-that’s a first!! And needed to return. Headboards not attached Stains on wall and ceiling Shower not working- not that we would have attempted. Lovely smell and noise from takeaway vent below our window. Other footy lads staying said they could not bring drinks in from outside , only drinks from owners bar😂 Front door of hotel left open all night- super sketchy😂 If you want an adventure , and an away footy night ,not fussed about luxury or having locked doors - give it a go! You will have a story to tell and maybe a win unlike us !

We arrived at 5 pm to find the property locked and no one answered the bell or knocks at the door. The telephone number provided does not connect to anything. We had to go find another hotel at short notice. I believe this property to be some kind of scam.

The rooms are ok, that’s about all I can say positive, The staff seemed to be on ***** and quite intermediating. wouldn’t recommend this hotel to anyone it’s not in a nice area of Newcastle and when we arrived yesterday at midday the hotel wasn’t even open for us to leave our bags.

Stayed here for 1 night as we were going to a concert. Yes okay its not in the best area of Newcastle but hey if you can get over that then great. Yes I admit we were a bit worried reading the reviews before staying that we actually looked at other places but to be fair we had a nice time. Yes its basic but its clean and they are helpful, we actually had a really great night sleep. What more could you want really its not the ritz its just a hotel/bar just outside Newcastle city centre with helpful staff. Thank you we enjoyed our stay

Had to book somewhere last minute for a work trip. Easily the worst place I have ever stayed and I’ve been backpacking in Australia. Unclean, the bedroom door didn’t shut or lock, I pushed the bed against the door and slept with the light on all night. Felt very unsafe in the area and if I had been travelling with my wife or family member I would have left immediately
