Was a bit disappointed with this escape room. It wasn't terrible but was definitely not up to the standard we've come to expect after visiting places such as Rush and Curium. There was no back story provided before entering the room, something that's pretty stock standard with escape rooms. There was no timer anywhere so we don't even know what time we escaped in, it wasn't mentioned by the game master when we came out. One of the combinations didn't work when we entered it so we spent a good amount of time trying to figure out what we needed to do next before asking for help and finding out that what we had initially done was in fact correct but it took another 2 attempts to open it. One of the other puzzles didn't actually make sense to us, we're pretty sure it was a bad clue because we have no idea how to come to the conclusion they had from the clue that was given. Lastly, the ending of the room was actually a bit confusing and we weren't actually sure if we'd completed it or not, don't want to give any spoilers so won't go into any more detail. Apart from all of those things, the rest of the room was not bad, there were great jump scares and it flowed reasonably well with some different puzzles to solve, but we won't be going back to try their other rooms.

We had so much fun at Hijinx Hotel! If you're after an escape room, this isn't it, but if you love a good challenge and want to have some fun this is a great place to visit. It contains a series of challenges for you to complete in 4 minutes. It was definitely more physically demanding than we expected, so be prepared to move. We did it with just the 2 of us which was fine but you can score better with more people, 4 or 5 would probably be a good amount.

I think this room is better than our experience left us feeling. There were a couple of things that didn't go to plan meaning the game master had to come into the room and interrupted the flow of the game. The puzzles themselves were fun and we enjoyed the room, there was one particularly tricky puzzle that we didn't understand which made sense once explained, not sure if we would have got there on our own. It was a little different to other rooms as the puzzles all didn't need to be done in a particular order to get through the room, neither good nor bad just different.

We really enjoyed this room, was lots of fun with plenty of different puzzles to solve and some features we haven't seen before in escape rooms. There was 2 of us and we were able to complete the room in good time with no hints. The puzzles were hard enough that we didn't blitz through quickly but easy enough that we were able to solve them without help. Owner Suzanne is lovely and we had a nice chat with her about all things escape rooms.

This was an interesting room. Initially there wasn't much to go off and we definitely got sidetracked by a bit of a red herring. There was a lot going on throughout the experience which made it challenging to figure out what were clues (plenty of red herrings) and we were definitely kept on our toes. Apart from one puzzle we were stumped on, we were able to work out way though the room without too much difficulty but this was definitely a more challenging room than Raven Hill which we also competed here.
