Positive Reviews

Convenient location
Reviews of this hotel are hardly overwhelmingly positive and there do appear to be some fairly significant issues. However, many guests comment favourably about the location of the hotel. The nearby Taylors Park is a plus point, as is the proximity of the town centre and the train station.
positive:
Friendly staff
Although there appears to be regular confusion over bookings, many guests find the staff are friendly and helpful. It may not be five-star service all the way, but it seems that you will feel welcome at least.
positive:
Cheap rooms
Reviews of the Parkview Hotel & Guest House suggest that if you just need somewhere to lay your head for the night without spending a fortune, this may be an option. Perhaps for this reason, the hotel seems to be popular for temporary construction workers in the area.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Poor housekeeping and maintenance
Comments that indicate poor housekeeping and maintenance are prevalent among reviews of this property. Reported problems include broken lights and amenities, as well as uncomfortable beds and bugs. Some guests just do away with specifics and describe the place as a dump.
negative:
Dubious clientele
More than a few reviews describe how guests found the hotel was noisy, mainly due to people arriving back at the property late at night after copious amounts of alcohol. Plus, guests are seen wandering around in their underwear.
negative:
Disappointing breakfast
Not every guest enjoyed breakfast. Some found the meal a little bland while others complain that their breakfast was cold. Also, there don't appear to be enough spaces to sit, so you may have to wait. Many guests chose to eat elsewhere due to the poor conditions in the remainder of the hotel.
