Lenton Lodge Guest House

not to good

This place is beyond disgusting. Anyone writing anything nice about this place must seriously feel sorry for the owner. Mould all over the place, dirty cups, towels and bed sheets. Other lodgers include a variety of insects and i an only guessing however with the scraping and scuffling around In the evening I’m sure they also have rats or mice in there too. And the gentleman whom owns it feels £50 is a fair price. He also refuses to give refunds. A complaint to environmental health and the ombudsman have been required. Stay far far away

The whole house looks derilict junk laying about the car parking was rolled hardcore, its a filthy place the net curtains are grey with dirt most hanging in shreds, the bath room is disgusting the toilet was filthy brown form top to bottom no toilet roll. The bedroom had a sink unit but no water came out of the taps, curtains hanging off from the rails. Dirty carpets, i could go on and on it needs a complete refurbish from top to bottom.

I booked this place in a hurry as the hotel booking I made elsewhere was cancelled. I wish I had read the reviews. I am stunned that this place hasn't been shut down. It is simply uninhabitable. It is absolutely filthy with sticky residue and dirt on all surfaces. It smells damp. There are uncovered sockets with exposed wires near the sink. The outside area is like a rubbish dump. The last straw for me was the inappropriate behaviour of the creepy man who checked me in who made a pass at me. As a single female traveller I felt felt pretty unsafe. Other liken their experience to a horror film. Needless to say, I didn't stay. Found another hotel near Gatwick. ********** with whom I made the booking were not remotely interested . At this price, I was expecting extremely basic but clean accommodation. I honestly don't think that the rooms here are ever cleaned.

This is what the bottom end of the market is like - room ok, shared facilities poor, but ultimately kind. Do be aware of need to phone if you are arriving outside their very minimal hours - in my case a welcome book ut unsought refuge during train strike
