8/10
Oddfellows lives up to its name 100%
Exteriorly the building scares you; peeling paintwork, broken wooden fences, dropping facias, even a broken half hanging To Let sign as cherry on top!
But once you meet the proprietor, and gets inside, I was enlightened!
In brief, I can say many hotels, even 6 * hotels in South East Asia, I've stayed in, I've sworn under my breath that the rooms were designed more for aesthetics then for living in; one pet hate of mine especially Travelodge is NO power socket plugs by bedside; how to chat on phone whilst in bed? They expect you to get out of bed, trot over to other side of room to plug your phone in, get back into bed, then Tttrrriiinng, a new message notification comes in!
It's annoying!
But in Oddfellows, the room is obviously less luxurious as it's a hostel BUT it's damn practical, there's a barrel of power sockets beneath the bedside cabinet, a practical bedside lamp that has a simple switch, a nice size wardrobe with LOTs of hangers not FIVE like most boutique hotels, a tiny cute fridge, a quick dispenser kettle not typical hotel kettles with cords that's always not long enough to reach the limited power plugs and a washbasin with soap dispenser and towels, great bed with clean sheets etc
Out my room, round the corner, 5 metres walk is the absolutely clean large shower and toilet you can swing several cats around, no probs.
Breakfast is unique too, you cook it!
Overall; thumbs up 👍 have booked another stay for later this month
