Great value for money
This is basic, great value for money accommodation tgg heats well located. Spotlessly clean, and had everything we needed and a bit more, too, including a microwave, dishes, cutlery and a mini-fridge. Bed was comfy, shower was good. Room was quiet. Free off-road parking. Hospitality tray was generous too. We chose the small double which was compact, but was great for what we needed. My only criticism was that there was no mirror over the desk/dressing table, but there was a mirror that you could stand up and use. Friendly greeting on arrival. Location was great too. About 15 minute walk to Reading City Centre as bd less than that to the train station. We’d definitely stay again.

Der Service ist sehr freundlich, man erhält viele praktische Hinweise und Tips für den Aufenthalt in Reading. Ich bin mit meiner Toschter deutlich verspätet angekommen aber sofort freundlich begrüßt worden. Das Zimmer war geräumig und gemütlich. es ging zum Garten und war ruhig. ich habe die Zeit genossen. Wenn ich wieder nach Reading komme werde ich wenn möglich wieder in Amherst Reading übernachten.
