Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.

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.

Welcoming staff

A very welcoming atmosphere and the room was good value for money. Unfortunately, there were a lot of hairs on the floor of the bathroom, so it could have been cleaner, but otherwise no complaints

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…

Staff very helpful & parking at hotel! Location is central but ilfracombe, close to seafront and harbour. Easy to get to by car! Hotel is very dated and run down needs a serious revamp. Shower not powerful at all, bed rock solid.. walls so thin other guests keeping us up all night. We booked hotel last minute due to our air b&b being cancelled … £100 for 2 nights we weren’t expecting great things…
