Excellent price/ value, fairly spacious but basic room with few furnishings, bathroom door oddly very narrow in my room! Very large hotel next to seafront and high street so good location and some free parking available in nearby streets. Would recommend as a budget-friendly option.

Breakfast was too expensive for a continental style at £14.50. Only 1 pillow on the beds and no evening meal so had to find another hotel. No 24 hour reception as advertised and no fee car park either. Decide we could not stay another night due to poor compliance with advertisement.

The First Lady on reception we felt was really rude and abrupt as we enquired about parking in the car park as the chain was up. The Second Lady was friendlier however did not like how we were told our room number out loud. I worked as a hotel manager for Greene King and it was policy we were not to tell but to show the room number due to safeguarding the guests. Especially if I was a female travelling alone, anyways charged for the dog which we accepted. There was just no personal touch, I had stated in our notes it was our anniversary and not even a happy anniversary. I also noticed if we had booked direct which would have cost me alot more than Expedia we could have had a free room upgrade if available but didn’t want to take the risk of paying and then not, the hallway ti our room 312 smelt absolutely horrendous, first night it was bareabke but the second was like sewage, it was not great. Also a complete mission for anyone wth dogs like myself to ve put on the 3rd floor. Especially with a lift that was tempremental in working. All other dog friendly hotels I have stayed in have had the dogs on ground floor rooms for easy access to outside areas for them to go to the toilet etc. the bathroom wasn’t very clean and there was piles of dust beside the wardrobes, the coffee tray etc. We don’t get away very often due to having kids and after paying the extra £20 dog fee I just felt really really let down. I wanted to looks To return with my children this year or even to a more

Staff were great. My room was a good size ( I had a double room). Curtain was hanging off one side. Shower curtain was also hanging off. Shower was broken, so I could not put it up higher on the pole. Bath mat had mould on the underside of it. Breakfast was nice, with a varied choice of food.

The hotel was well placed for walking into Ilfracombe and the room was comfortable. As it was a large room the bed would be better to have been a king size as opposed to a double. The hotel obviously caters to bus trips and as such the dining was limited to the same, but the food was good and well cooked.

Friendly staff, great location for the museum, theatre, seafront and harbour. There is a bus stop right outside for Barnstaple for shopping. We asked if we could have a ground floor room when we booked and that was what we were given. The bathroom was large and very clean. We had to leave early as our granddaughter was unwell and the night staff were very helpful. We would stay in this hotel again. Only downside was the decor was a bit tired in our room.
