Comfortable and enjoyable. Good value.
Pros:

Superb location next to the Hoe monuments and easy walk to Barbican. Breakfast was tasty and so nice to be able to order from a varied menu for hot food instead of a buffet. The fruit/cereals etc were nice and varied. The room was spotlessly clean and comfortable. The staff I met were so polite, engaging and helpful which made my short stay in Plymouth even better than expected. Do try the Bentley lounge sofas! Thank you.

Cons:

Nothing.

Cute hotel just steps to the seaside. Great for a break.
Pros:

Very friendly staff. Well laid-out and comfortable room. We were there during exceptional heat and were thankful for the fan. Excellent breakfast, too. And to top it off, the location is hard to beat, a few steps from the sea!

Cons:

Nothing.

Great owners and staff, just not the standard expected.
Pros:

The staff were absolutely brilliant. Polite, friendly, and I felt that nothing would be too much trouble for them

Cons:

The material state of the room was poor. There was damp in the corner and all the way up the wall. The wooden window felt rotten and I worried about closing it. There was peeling paint, unfinished work and paint work around wires through the wall, and the bathroom had several maintenance issues and mould around the silicone.

séjour reposant mais hôtel nécessitant un petit rafraîchissement
Pros:

excellent petit-déjeuner très complet, varié et cuisiné au moment de la commande pour les plats chauds : oeufs, bacon, etc ...
l'amabilité du personnel, un peu moins du responsable

Cons:

la première chambre au rez-de-chaussée où nous avons été logés, sombre et triste avec vue sur le parking, douche dans une sorte de placard, à l'évacuation poussive, lavabo PMR trop bas
