    "A good clean guest house within easy reach to expolre Stratford. only five minutes walk from the town. Parking in the public carpark was not a problem either. Staff were friendly and helpful too. Breakfast was continental but there was plenty of it and it made a nice change not to find the typical full english." (97157247)

    Clean and tidy ideally situated to explore

    "our room was in the attic and two flights of stairs had to be negotiated(the second flight very steep and narrow.). We were with friends and opted for this room over the garden room as our friends would not have been able to manage the stairs.Had we known we would have requested lower rooms.But all in all we had a very enjoyable stay.Many thanks,."

    "It'll be helpful if images or video tour are/is provided when online booking is made. Guests will then know if they are choosing one that is to their expectation." (97274453)

    Clean and quiet!

    Two separate taps for cold & hot water.....troublesome especially when the weather is cold.

    "Welcome was good. Staff very helpful and friendly indeed. Room was small, but beautifully clean with everything you would expect and set in a very pleasant garden location. Breakfast was excellent - continental style - with hot croissants, cheeses, ham, freshly boiled eggs and cereals amongst other things. Good for vegetarians. Owner supplied a parking pass which was most welcome and the premises is within easy walking distance of all the main attractions." (3305342580)

    Very clean, comfortable and well maintained. Good facilities and well positioned for the town centre, theatres and main attractions.

    "Overall excellent. Anyone checking in should be aware of the proximity to the road and that the parking area is approximately 300 yards away. Neither was a burden." (3304098508)

    Close to the town and attractions

    "Would have liked to have known to bring own sheets and pillow cases...even though facility was clean, not sure about bed covers other than bottom sheet. Should have booked earlier, because there are ground floor rooms that would have been cooler. As it was, we were sweltering along with anyone else who had a second or higher floor room in Stratford during heat wave." (3304847728)

    The location was excellent. Bathroom clean and shower performed well.

    Stayed two nights during heat wave...no air conditioning. Only bottom sheet on bed, no cover sheets leaving one to wonder who last slept in bed. No real pillow cases either.

    from Oak hill , United States;US  on  July 23, 2006

    Very clean rooms. Nice dining for breakfast if a little unimaginative. Helpful proprietors. Good access by foot to most major attractions. Easy and ample parking.

    Rooms were a little tight, but not unreasonably so.

    Artful and impeccably cared for, good breakfast accompanied by classical music.

    Nothing really, except the disdain for credit cards.

    within walking distance from town and rail station very clean, very quiet continental breakfast was substantial and the coffee was good

    room would be too small for 2 people for more than one night- but for us for one night it was really great!

    "This is a friendly, homely and spotlessly clean bed and breakfast. The staff are friendly. The breakfast is a healthy option rather than the stodgy full-English variety but there is plenty to help yourself to on the buffet. The Hotel is within easy walking distance of the city centre and theatres." (3304920042)

  • 7/10 Joy ( Mature couple)

    "Homely, nicely decorated rooms, pleasant staff, very nice breakfast. Modern shower and toilet facilities. All of our questions were answered. Within walking distance of many historical buildings. Very pleasant town eventhough it is very busy. The modern part of the town is discreet but has a good shopping centre if you fancy a shopping spree. Very picturesque River Avon very close by. We found two theatres by the River Avon. A butterfly farm within walking distance" (3304262434)

    Our accommodation was not noisy eventhough it was in the heart of town. Well positioned for visiting historical places of interest.

    Up to date information on plays, films, good eating places etc. The beds were not at all comfortable due to springs in matresses.The beds also creaked which tended to wake us up when we moved in our sleep. Information needed to use the hair dryer. We thought it was broken!

    "The hotel is on a busy street close to traffic lights. Guests need a clearer steer on where to park up while they register at hotel reception. This is particularly because they will be given a free parking permit at reception - so there is no point in paying handsomely for extended parking. I was lucky, but it could be a problem." (3304168352)

    Clean, efficient, comfortable. Heating in the room could be controlled - v often not the case.

    No cooked breakfast was available - I can't recall if this was explained on their website.

    "The guest house is in fantastic location for the train station, and good for the town. Rooms are clean. Breakfast was a buffet continental style, it was ok but I would have prefered a fry up. The owner made you book a time for breakfast, we turned up 5 mins late and he was getting worried. I would like the ability to show up for breakfast whenever I wanted to. If you dont mind this then the hotel is fine." (2465744)

    Very close to train station.

    Allocated time for breakfast left no feeling of freedom. Owner was a little protective of everything. Breakfast was average.
