“The Douglas Hotel has some potential as a no-frills base for exploring Hartlepool, with its proximity to the Middleton Grange Shopping Centre and the marina. I noted that the hotel provides free on-street parking and a continental breakfast, a welcome convenience. However, reports of maintenance issues and inconsistent service suggest a need for improvements to ensure a reliable stay.”

convenient location clean room fresh linen difficult checkin cold shower missing mirror

the location proved convenient as it was close to the town center (a short walk). the room was kept clean. fresh bed linen was provided for my stay.

the check-in process was not smooth. i had to call to get the code to enter the building. there was no hot water in the bathroom, so i could only take cold showers. i also noticed there was no mirror available in the room or bathroom.
