Our sleep was ok, but it wasn’t what I expected from the photos. A good clean of the carpets would help and better amenities. I don’t think it was worth the price I paid.

Ok for short stay, noisy drain in road at front of hotel, every time a car ran over it, it was like a gun going off in the night, good breakfast, Ilfracoombe seems to be shutting down, derelict buildings and hotels all around, would not go there again.

Honestly up there with the worst hotel I’ve stayed in. No fans, rooms were absolutely roasting. Shower didn’t have a door or a curtain so water just goes everywhere. The bed was so uncomfortable and everything about it was just dingy… learned the following day it was used recently to hone asylum seekers and now I know why. Will not be staying there again…

I was booked-in for only one night without breakfast, so did not have the full B&B experience. Reception was friendly and helpful. The single room was comfortable with all that I needed for a very early start the following day. Definitely value for money and would use again given its very convenient location to all attractions including the harbour.

It’s an absolute bargain to be honest. Could probably do with a bit of renovating but can’t argue with the price at all.

Lovely welcome from the staff on reception. Room was clean and comfortable, bathroom and shower cubicle was quite small. We stayed on a room only basis so can’t comment on breakfast or other meals. Unable to park at hotel but no problem getting into the nearby Jubilee gardens pay and display which is only a couple of minutes walk away. Main reasons for not giving a higher rating are that the hotel is showing its age and needs refurbishment, especially in areas like the stairs and corridors, and also because the room was very hot and even with the window open it was too warm and felt airless. We stayed when temperatures were not particularly high for the time of year and I would not have wanted to be in that room during a hotter spell. Overall the hotel offered very good value for an overnight visit and we would stay again if we return to the area,
