Reviews

Just the place we needed for this trip :)

Pros: Great straightforward communications for booking, location access etc :) Good price As described = comfy clean practical rooms. Good mattress & shower The two upper connected / individual rooms worked really well for us.

Cons: Would have been good know that there's no crockery or cutlery to use with fridge, kettle & microwave which are provided - as I'd have brought some! Decor is little worn/peeling in places but all good. Hairdryer didn't work! Hope it's replaced for next guests!

Weekend away

Pros: The rooms and bathroom were good for the price and tea and coffee and water were supplied. We jad a good stay and the bus stop was across the road .

Cons: The single bed was quite uncomfortable as mattress kept slipping off base. Would of liked a bedside cabinet. There were 2 properties near to each other and the one on booking.com was not the one I thought we were staying in.

Excellent stay. Definitely visit again

Pros: Compact room but with everything you need. Very quiet and cosy. Bed extremely comfortable for an excellent night sleep. Lovely hot shower. Easy check in/check out process

Cons: Steep stairs to first floor but there is nothing can be done about that

Fantastic accommodation! Couldn’t recommend enough!

Pros: We booked this really last minute and it was amazing value for money. It was very clean, warm and comfortable. The room was really big and had a large en suite. You could not hear anyone else in other rooms besides people coming and going. We could not recommend enough, we were very happy with our stay. The check-in process was very straightforward and they contacted us beforehand to make sure we would be able to get in. They also provided some refreshments which was so thoughtful. Thanks again!

Cons: Nothing to dislike, it was great!

Pros: Stayed at at the other building before and this one was definitely nicer. The rooms were really big, very clean. Even had bottles of water and orange in the fridge which you are aloud to take. Will definitely stay again.

Lovely little stay!

Pros: The room was lovely, airy and great all round. The complimentary drinks were a bonus. There was a hair dryer, ironing board, fan etc.

Cons: The mattresses were a bit uncomfortable.

Brilliant value for the money!

Pros: I liked the bath most mean swimming pool!! being 6ft4 i could nearly do a lap in this thing! It's huge it's worth booking up even if you live in colchester just have a proper good soaking then check out its that good!

Cons: I have to be honest and this is just because there's always room for improvement! But really the BATH! come on now! Oh and I forgot the bidet aswell! But the only thing I could find to improve on was the laminate flooring which with signs saying quiet times between 12 and 8 which isn't the exact times but something close to that you almost feel like staying on the bed between then hours because of the tapping when you walk if upstairs of course is a little loud and the beds could do with a little updating but apart from that nothing else to complain about

Lovely stay

Pros: A lovely room, the complimentary drinks were very sweet! Very clean and tidy. I chose this because of the parking, super easy to park and off the road. Would recommend.
