Disappointing stay.

The room was clean, but the shared shower and toilet facilities were very small and there was no wash hand basin in the toilet! Unfortunately there was a lingering smell of cooking, even on the second floor where our room was located. Considering the price it wasn’t too bad as a bed for the night, but I won’t be coming back

By far my worst stay ever...

By far my worst stay ever and ive travelled for work for years. It seemed more like a hostel rather than a bed & breakfast. The carpet looked dirty. I had a breakout of spots on my body by the 2nd day. I had a spider crawling all over tge bed & my clothes as I trued to get dressed. I stayed 4 nights & the bins were not emptied at all.
Mould/water damage
Water not flowing properly in sink and also in shower

This place is a basic guest house, no breakfast offered, choice of on suite or shared bathrooms, the rooms are small with tea and coffee stuff even a microwave, but no shower/ shampoo offered in the rooms. Yes it has free parking next to the property, yes it is 5 minutes from Ipswich train station, yes it is 20 minutes to the town centre, but would I stay there again no.

No frills but no fuss!

Cheap and cheerful. Very convenient for train station. Free parking off road. Can't complain given the bargain price I paid. I arrived late and left early. Friendly staff at check in.
