Good basic room for a one night stay with my daughter before the UEA open day.|Comfy beds, kettle and reasonable bathroom, no little fridge in room so if staying more than 1 night and had milk etc it might be a problem. |£9 to get a taxi into town which I thought was good. |We were there on a Friday night and it wasn't too noisy.

Perfect location, great breakfast, excellent service. Disappointing room, with a pervasive fusty damp smell. Stark walls and terrible cold lighting. …

Broadview's rooms are fairly basic but, given their rates, excellent value for money. Everything works, the rooms are clean and the beds are comfortable. The hotel is located within the lovely grounds of the University with excellent bus connections nearby.

Very clean and comfortable. Everything works very well. Ample tea and biscuits. I stay here once a week as I study at UEA. The staff are friendly and helpful, and always try to place me in my favourite room. Really convenient if you have any business at UEA.

Stayed for ine night when visiting my son at University. The hotel/ halls of residence is Not clean, there were cobwebs, and toilet floor was dirty. At £70 not good value as the local premier inn offers more for less. …

Nice experience at the hotel due to the helpful and friendly receptionists Lily, Tina and Samantha. The room was a bit small but had what I needed. The location is great for parents visiting students at the University of East Anglia. Water machine in the corridor was useful.

It was a perfect location to stay for dropping the daughter to university. The staff was very pleasant and welcoming. The room was clean and comfortable. The reception closes at 5pm, so was not sure who to approach if there was an issue, but luckily didn't need to :)

I stayed here for two nights. Close proximity to school. The room is basic and has a hair dryer and soap. But the walls are paper thin and I can hear everything my neighbors do. The shower drain is slow so you can’t really take a shower more than 30 seconds without your feet being soaked.
