There was a shortage of staff with the receptionist attending the bar as well Cleaning equipment was left in corridor. Bed was terrible. So lumpy! Another guest arrived after 1am and walls were paper thin so could hear conversation. We didn’t have breakfast so cannot comment on this.

The first time we arrived our neighbours were playing loud music, we asked to move and we got told by the staff they'd give them a sound warning, which they did and fortunately they turned the music down. Our room wasn't the cleanest, there was hairs in the shower and bed and where our towels were in the wardrobe were very dusty. My partner had a bath and the water flooded out of the bottom of the bath. Whilst we was out, someone had come into our room and changed our bed and towels, even though we hadn't put a sign on our door to say we had needed it and we had only been there for one night. The duvet cover was dirty, and had a poo stain on it (i do have a photo if needed) we asked for another one and the receptionist said he was new and didn't know where anything was and would have to wait until another member of staff came in..

Best Western Calcott

Arrived after driving all night from Scotland for a family funeral in Reading area. Allocated rooms 3&9 the corridor had a horrible smell and the rooms looked like they required a full refurbishment. We went straight to bed as we were all shattered. The beds were clean and comfortable but the bathroom tap leaked as did the shower and was extremely noisy. Got woken up at 5am with the Fire alarm being set off, for the record this had not been logged at reception. We should have complained at the time but were too tired and straight out to attend funeral next day.
