"The communication was terrible, we only got the code for the apartment access after we called the owner a few times. Even after he had picked up and said he was sending it, he still didn’t and we had to call him back again. This was all last minute. We had originally booked to stay in the bigger apartment but the owner sent a message on the app to say he had double booked us and were we happy to stay in a smaller apartment with a shared kitchen rather than a private one.

Village Hotel Swindon

10/10 Excellent

"Check in staff excellent & lobby with Starbucks & pub very useful indeed. Room comfortable & clean with a nice view. UF there was a negative, it would be the window frames which had not been cleaned ever & were dusty to the point of mould. However, this did not detract from an overall great stay. "

Holiday Inn Express Swindon City Centre by IHG

4/10 Poor

"The main bedroom was okay, other than not being able to open a window. The shower room however was very poor. There was a strong sewage smell coming from the bathroom, which we reported. The shower tray flooded while showing, and there was mould around the door frame which I expect was a result of the damp and odours. The staff were pleasant and the breakfast was good. Parking was easy at the nearby Shepperd Street and easily organised at checkin. "

Premier Inn Swindon Town Centre

4/10 Poor

"Hotel itself was clean and maintained well. Bathrooms were nice and clean as well. My issue with this hotel is that I booked and paid for a room that had 2 single beds and a double bed. When checking in I was informed that it was hotel policy that only 2 adults per room and given a room with a single bed and a double bed. My friend had to book her own room on the spot because of that yet the website and booking company never stated there was a 2 adult per room policy. "
