It's a hotel for homeless people for whatever reason they were made homeless. Every room is blocked out on website until September 2025. So not really a hotel anymore. Merely a hostel. Good luck to them it must keep the place going as fakenham not a tourist hotspot

Good food. Staff couldn't be more helpful. Not a 24hr hotel so sometimes have to call QR enabled number on personal mobile for reception. Overall very nice 5 day stay.
