Fantastic service from booking over the phone to being welcomed on arrival. The room was perfect, I couldn’t fault it at all. Great price, and to have everything on your door step is a bonus. I made a mistake of paying for parking which was £16.60 for 24 hours, however they offer permits for £5 which is brilliant, and will be using this in the future, silly me. Overall I highly recommend, and will certainly be back. Thank you very much, especially at short notice.

We had a very nice stay in one of the rooms on the second floor, we were slightly sceptical before arriving as the room has no en-suite but were pleasantly surprised to have our own bathroom on the ground floor + toilets on the first floor. …

Not what I was expecting, the price was steep for the a room with 3 single bed (Bedroom 6) so small this is located at the top of the property The shower is on the ground floor and the toilets are 2 floors down from bedroom 6. Decor needs some maintenance. This is the worst guest house I have stayed in Plymouth!

The room was dirty even had mould on the walls and even in the bathroom I had to pay extra money even in the shops to buy disaffect spray and spray everywhere even back over twice to even make sure all bacteria was gone and even then I’m wasn’t 100% it was totally gone. The bathroom even wasn’t great making it all a complete match, the shower even had left over hair in it? Was not impressed and felt horrible I couldn’t even bare to touch the sides in the shower after seeing that. I had to buy water from shops for the kettle etc, my girlfriend felt really itchy and even I was it was so bad we had to leave early also I just couldn’t even bare a second of being there , definitely wouldn’t be staying there again, one star for me would not recommend.
