Value for money and comfortable
It's a nice enough hotel, close to the centre and either train station. There were several nice touches in the room, including a cafetiere. Nice big breakfast, served with a smile.

Comfortable stay. Clean rooms. Cooked breakfast was tasty. Toilet seat was a bit dodgy - could do with fixing. Also would recommend upgrading the quality of the bed linen. Otherwise, quiet and comfortable.

The place is sold as a hotel but it is very very very small. The spaces are small the rooms are small. The bathroom is a cubby hole. The is being sold as a hotel but it is NOT and should not be marketed as such

6/10 Good

It was good value for money. The room was a little “cell” like and the small wall mounted tv was partly obscured by the tall boy cupboard. But it was very clean, the staff were attentive and efficient.

It is fine for an overnight visit to Exeter. Hardest thing was finding the car park which has very narrow parking spaces especially when there are big SUVs there
