Negative Reviews
negative:
Car parking not free and difficult to obtain.
Car parking is a problem in the small but busy town of Brighouse, making it difficult for guests at The Waterfront Lodge to find a parking space. Furthermore parking is not free, so guests arriving by car need to factor this cost into their visit.
negative:
Rooms can be too warm.
Some reviews report the hotel as being too warm at times, and with a lack of functioning windows that open to let fresh air in. This is only a problem in standard rooms that do not have air conditioning facilities.
negative:
It can be noisy outside.
Rooms overlooking the street can be noisy, whether it is from people passing by or from traffic. Some guests also report excessive noise coming from an electricity generator through the night.
