ibis budget Leeds Centre Crown Point Road

I pre booked this hotel as I was going to a concert in Leeds and at £50.00 thought it was a reasonable price. On arriving I noticed the illuminated sign outside was quoting a price of £85.00 and thought I had made the right choice in booking early. However after seeing the very small room and basic facilities I can only assume that this hotel must be making a fortune at £50 let alone £85. As there was no parking facilities I also ended up paying £14.50 to park my car so had I paid the top price I would have spent best part of £100.00 BEFORE I even paid for my concert ticket. I would have sooner gone to a Premier Inn if I had to pay the extortionate price of £85 and £35-40 would have been the top price I would have expected to pay for this room. All in all I will not be booking this hotel again, should I need to stay in Leeds and would advise other people to think twice before using this chain of hotels. Premier Inn hotels have bigger rooms and a discounted parking scheme for using the nearby car parks. I also would not use this hotel if my wife came with me as she is disabled and would have great difficulty even trying to get into the room let alone use the toilet or shower. Having said that, I obviously do NOT know if the hotel has bigger rooms for the disabled as I did not require one.

Liked: Clean and tidy.
Disliked: Small room.

Bad experience

Liked: That was nothing that I liked about it except for big numbers on the door and a talking lift because I am visually impaired
Disliked: I did not like it because there were no cups tea or coffee in the room, the night porter when I asked for him to order me a taxi where I needed to use my bank card he did not understand any English at all, there were young kids banging doors and they woke me up at 1:00 in the morning and nothing got dealt with and the shower was very small I couldn't even turn around and the roof was touching my head.

Very happy with accommodation but...

Liked: We were very happy with the comfort of the room and breakfast once we arrived and thought it all very good value. Directions to the hotel were confusing on a complicated one way road system and, once we arrived, the map we were given to the recommended car park was very poorly printed. So, finding the car park and walking back to the hotel from the car park with our luggage and very poor directions on a very hot day was hard work.
Disliked: Initial reception could have offered to take bags while we parked the car and a better map to the car park given.

Clean and comfortable stay

Liked: The location is excellent, 5 minutes walk from the city centre. The staff were friendly and helpful, they couldn't have been better. The Ibis has two lifts, just yards from the reception desk. On a very hot weekend the room was very cool and comfortable. My bed was very comfortable too and i didnt hear any noise at all from other guests or from outside with the window shut. The toilet and shower are compact but do the job perfectly, the shower was a nice and simple walk in one. I could leave my luggage at reception, and breakfast was a continental buffet and was nice. There are bottled drinks available to purchase, including alcoholic, and lager on tap, although no bar as such.
Disliked: Of course it's a budget hotel so no coffee tea facilities in the room, but knew thiswhen bookings so wasn't a problem.
