    Just a few bits really when I made the bed in the morning there was stains on the bottom sheet looked a bit like mould, the net curtains were very dirty and the main curtains had come off the track and hanging down. The smell on the stairs and corridor was a bit musty, ok in the room though.

    Great size room, it was a family room but I didn’t like the fact the spare bed was made up it took a lot of space up in the room but everything else was pretty good. Tea and coffee supplies were excellent. Bathroom was very clean and modern but only a waterfall shower which are not great if you don’t want to wash your hair and don’t have a shower cap.

    Taps in the gents public ( bar ) toilets were loose. There wasn't any hand soap in the ladies public toilet. In both dispensers. Apart from that the bar area and eating area were clean and well presented . Food was great value for money.

    The room was clean and the location was brilliant. You could walk into the town...took 20 mins. Ample parking. Staff were pleasant.

    They is nothing we didn't like.

    The staff are very pleasant. On arrival we had an issue with our bedroom door and they fixed it immediately. We had a evening meal and breakfast a couple of mornings it was delicious. The room is clean and you get toiletries. We had an excellent stay. Also there's a big free car park . Just a short walk into Chester about 10 minutes

    TV was not working, we were with friends and all 4 rooms had no TV. On a night we have a loud humming noise all night we were told there had a problem with a fan and would sort it but both nights were the same. So not alot of sleep. Breakfast could off be a lot better. Bread 3 slices to cover the full hotel. Kept asking for plates and bowls. Breakfast was just not good enough. A domestic toaster is not good enough for a hotel.

    Staff was good, room was nice and big.

    The inn is beautiful but it is on a busy main road. One could hear the loud traffic noise during the night.

    Good facilities, plenty of tea and coffee provided. Clean bed sheets and towels. Loved the huge bathroom in the family room.

    Just could have done with small set of drawers in room!! Could hang clothes but nowhere to put other things such as underwear etc

    The fact it was a Hungry Horse establishment, so, after having breakfast there after being out & about we ate & spent evening after having a drink

    The bath in the room was small and tight, as a bigger woman (size 20) it was a tight squeeze and my husband who is 5ft 8 couldn't lay back without his feet over the end. The staff was very blunt, was told we could leave sandwiches in the fridge by the phone and then when we arrived we were told we couldn't. A small fridge would be ideal. I can only drink skimmed milk but the availability was semi skimmed or oat. For the price of the room, breakfast even confectionery breakfast (toast, cereal) should have been included.

    I loved the size of the room, the way the housekeeping was brilliant at providing extra items such as tea, coffee, sugar and milk. The food was good and the kettle in the room was a bonus.

    When the Bar is busy it can be difficult to find somewhere comfortable to sit.

    The Oaklands is well placed for Chester and the surrounding area, the room was spacious and clean although elements of the room needed some attention, but this did not spoil the comfort. There is a wide food choice which is reasonably priced, the venue can get very busy, especially if there is a sporting event on TV, it would be wise to plan your evening. The staff are generally very friendly and helpful.
