   This is more a goodbye review as I know here is cloesd for good! I have been staying in park view hotel for the best part of 14 years staying at least once a month! I was shocked when I found out it was closing. I do admit when I first stayed here it was very dated and run down. I will say for the prices here you can’t really get that value for money now days. A lot of memories here will be missed a lot

   Arrived at the hotel and was required to call a mobile number to be given access. Took a couple of calls which was less than ideal given it was cold and chucking it down, but an answer on the second attempt. Got up to the room and first thoughts was, it was cold. Room 8A I was. There was a radiator so I assumed heating would kick in at some point. Went away for dinner and came back to the same temperatures. Got into bed and hoped for the best. However, the temperature situation did not improve, and worse more, the radiator had me up every hour making clicking noises. Perhaps trying to fire into life but such things never happened. The closest I actually got to warmth in the room was the good amount of tea and coffee provided, this was a welcome delight in all fairness. The toilet facilities are small, but adequate. I beg the nation to stray away from shower curtains however, they limit your room as they’re sucked in when the shower is on and having one stuck to you is a grim feeling! A door would improve that situation tenfold. Overall, an adequate stay, radiator needs seeing to as a matter of urgency!

   Been a while since I was here but have used it a few times. Prices are reasonable compared to most guest houses of similar size, rooms are kept clean and there's always a good supply of tea, coffee, milk etc as well. Good access from the M6 via the M62 link to st Helens, the route brings you to the traffic lights outside (You get there via Thatto Heath so you're just round the corner at the lights. The main car park is small, maybe a bit tight for a van, but there are a few extra spaces opposite the vehicle entrance just ask. Not sure about wheelchair access, there are no lifts, this is a former residential home so I'm sure there must be some kind of access. Dining room is on the first floor and breakfast is always plentiful with a choice of cereals for self service. The full English cooked is delicious and you actually see it being cooked through the serving hatch. There's a TV in each room and some rooms look out over the busy dual carriageway to Taylor park. There's usually a few staff around in the morning but check in etc is done by 1 lovely lass who's been there pretty much since the place opened. There are cameras all round the external sections, including the entrance and car park. I would choose Park View over the main hotel in town any day, love the place.

   The hotel is well below standard. There is mould on walls and windows, which I'm allergic to, there is holes in ceilings and doors and the bedding is stained. There is more water coming out of the tiny shower unit than there was coming out of the shower head, the towels provided barely cover myself. People were fighting during the night and there was no staff on site to deal with it. Plug sockets don't work and there are big screws sticking out of the bunk beds which they tried covering with duct tape which is really unsafe having children in the room. The room is dusty and covered in cob webs and between the dogs accross the road constantly barking, people in the hotel banging doors and shouting, the sheer heat in the room even with the few windows that open are open, my partner, myself and my children have had no sleep! I really think the amount charged is very unreasonable for what is provided compared to a place like premier Inn which is only £10 more to stay in!

   Very clean and comfortable, the only thing I have to say against it is it was to warm for me, I kept waking up throughout the night due to being too hot, but other than that it's one of the best guest houses I've used, and doing my job I've used a few

   The rooms are good. Old building so you probably will be able to hear everything happening around you. I would book it if there is a good deal. Otherwise, a traditional hotel offers more privacy.
