The hotel was in a good location. It was clean and comfortable and although it doesn't have a reception. Staff were contactable by phone. ||Their customer service is first class.||We will definitely return. The hotel had all we needed and nothing was too much trouble.||The bed was extremely comfortable too.

Basic hotel, with no staff on site. No luggage store, which is penalising those travelling to Plymouth sustainably.Rooms appear clean at first glance. However, that's superficial as there is plenty of dust all over, so if you have any allergies, asthma, or sensitivities, you may find it hard to breathe. Opening windows can only help a little due to people smoking outside.Hotel owners responsive and good location.

Room has everything you need. Compact and bijoux. Value for money.
Not their fault but biggest hassle was paying for parking! Absolute nightmare.

Avoid at all costs. Stayed for 3 nights, paid £15 for a parking permit which never arrived. Had to pay at roadside parking meter which cost me over £70 for the duration of my stay and still never received the permit I paid for. Terrible experience.

Good location, quick walk into town.Waited over ten minutes to get access to our room due to not being sent any checking in details. No staff on hand to help. The room itself was filthy, and not prepared for our arrival. Escorts had people coming in and out throughout the night. We were given the wrong room, a tiny room without seating area as described. We were however, changed rooms on the second night but it ruined the stay a little bit.Once this was sorted, we were more than thrilled with our stay.

Lovely room with comfortable bed. Spotlessly clean throughout. Plenty of towels for our stay. Room had iron and ironing board, hair dryer, microwave, dishes, cutlery, kettle, tea, coffee and milk with a small mini fridge. Everything you would need was provided for. Hotel arranged our parking permit before we arrived.Great location. Will definitely return.

Initial review 5*. Comfortable, reasonably priced, great location, management and cleaning staff are friendly and very helpful. Would highly recommend staying here. But I have two recommendations (updated March 22 to 2*), unless you have a lot of luggage (we did from traveling for a few months) don't stay in room 1. The noise of the doors closing are a bit annoying and the people that smoke out front of the hotel and next door is a pain. If you have the windows open you choke to death.2. Don't leave anything in plastic bags that look like garbage or you'll lose them. Shoes don't walk out on their own, they get pitched by mistake. Not mine. But no one admits anything. So I'm out shoes and who gives a s.Management are helpful to a point when you are there, but the moment you leave then no, it's not their problem. As I said shoes don't walk out the door or throw themselves away. Not impressed with booking.com or the hotel.
