Such a pity
Nice hotel within easy walking distance to the beaches, eateries and pubs. Staff very pleasant and the dog was made very welcome. However, the down side was our room hadn't been cleaned properly. There was an empty dog food pouch from what I guess was from the previous occupier, rubbish in the toilet and dirty used tissue paper next to the tea and coffee. To top things off the ceiling paper is coming away from the ceiling...... And though adequate the hot water which was virtually non existent only ran at a trickle. Luckily the breakfast was very nice. Big shame. Helios

This hotel is very run down and in need of an upgrade. Our bathroom I could hear that there is a blockage in the drains as I’m a plumber and know what it sounds like , the shower screen is missing a section causing water to splashed all over the floor. The beds were very wobbly and mattresses are very worn as you sink into the middle of the bed , my bed felt as though I was in a dentist’s chair. More pillows could have been made available. I’m sorry but I will never book into this hotel again. I know the room was only £46 but that doesn’t mean you should rent out sub standard rooms.

All the floorboards were really creaky and doors did not shut quietly. Breakfast was not that great as very greasy. We were really lucky to have a room with a sea view and it was a convenient base as were only there for one night. Comfortable for a short stay.

For the payment the stay was very good. Hotel has a great position in St Ives, I even had a sea view. But I felt the hotel was in need of updating, it was like going back in time to the 80’s from the bathroom having the old style mixer tap shower to the tick box options for breakfast. Don’t get me wrong for the cost I’m 100% happy

Awful
When we arrived there wasn’t anyone on reception, had to go and look for someone to check us in. The first room we were put in was awful, so we asked to change, second room we tolerated, but still not nice, we stayed out of the hotel so we didn’t have to spend time in there. The breakfast was absolutely disgraceful, also no one about for us to check out, will definitely not be returning… the hotel was nothing that is ahown
