Tor Park Hotel, Sure Hotel Collection by Best Western

Decent location. Spacious room with good in room facilities. Reception is open 24hours. Staff at reception were very friendly. There was a lot of noise from people running up and down the stairs and this continued till late at night. Otherwise it was an ok stay with value for money.

Hotel very tired ... reasonably clean but needs overall general attention. Better availability and access to staff. I would have expected better from a Best Western Hotel certainly in comparison with others that I have stayed in ..... similarly priced.

This is a very cheap hotel and with that in mind, you expect cheap. It's like a pot noodle. Don't expect much! The staff were friendly, this is a plus and they are helpful too. The food is good value if you need to eat there, it's location is not too bad and the rooms are a good size. Rooms are noisy because it's an old building that hasn't been maintained or updated much. The floors above sound like elephants stamping if the people above move around! This is fine till they go to the loo at 5am! The main issue is deep neglect. It's filthy, surface level clean yes, and this could fool you for a one night stay but they don't do any cleaning during stays, no wipe down of surfaces, no vacume, just change bins and refill the tea. The dust, grime, and rubbish around were poor. I took a video of the grime on the bathroom doorframe but can only upload the photo of the tissue after. In a few weeks of working on it, they could transform the place, but I didn't see any real effort to clean or spruce. One outside area is an overgrown garden full of flowers left to rot and covered in trash. Under our beds was rubbish that was not ours! Carpark is full of trash too. We didn't go to the staff for these things because they were livable and not really deal breakers at £35ish a night. We had better things to do than complain whilst away. But this is a basic and cheap hotel, and if you keep that in mind, it's fine. The free parking makes it cheaper than travel lodge, but they would win over cleaning! Towels and linen are not changed even for a week stay, we read to leave towels on the floor only when they need changing and we did that, leaving them 3 times in the week when they were dirty from things. As there is no shower mat, we had to use towels for that, but only hand towels were changed once at the start despite us leaving dirty towels out to be changed like the instructions stated. The person just threw them over the shower. Our first housekeeper for the first few days was notably better than the other, I could tell the person had changed! 3 mins walk is Ginos cafe, Torquay Fryer and corner shops. Rooms: Good size. No WiFi, one key. En suit bathroom with basic facilities. TV with terrestrial channels, hairdryer, fan, 2 chairs, one wardrobe and bedside table and a desk. Lots of plugs. Bedside lamp. Nearby activities: Best fish and chips at Torquay Fryer, a little gem of a place. Safety: The area is close to the police so it's relatively safe. Many homeless are in torquay and you will walk past the if you walk to town or seafront, some approach you for cash. But it's safe if you remember to keep your stuff close to you. Walkability: 15 to 20 minuets to town ( use Google maps) 3mins to some local restaurants and shops, close to a play park and police station. Close to Torre train station. Parking free Food & drinks: Breakfast till 10am and fairly priced. Dinner served till late, good value for money. Noteworthy details: In case you wondered, the I
