Exceptional
Great view, great location, great days off in St Ives
Liked: This place has an amazing location. We could walk to the train station or bus stop within a minute and lovely walk towards shops and beaches. We’ve loved it here. Our room on the top floor had most amazing view! Such an easy going stay, really nice.
Disliked: N/a
It was ok but the breakfast was pretty dreadful and could be improved a lot
Liked: Good location
Disliked: The decor was a bit shabby and the breakfast was awful
Liked: Amazing view from the room of st ives, better than in the photo's, A building with a bit of chatacture, very clean and well presented.
Despite a few minor issues, I’d happily return — definitely recommended
Liked: The location was absolutely fantastic, and the room with the sea view was definitely the highlight of my stay. The view was truly beautiful, and the room itself was very tastefully furnished. I especially liked the colors and the overall design, which made the room feel very warm and comfortable. The accommodation was also wonderfully quiet, and I felt very comfortable and relaxed throughout my stay. Another lovely detail was the beautiful bench in front of the house, surrounded by flowers. I really enjoyed taking my breakfast outside and sitting there in the morning — it was such a peaceful and charming way to start the day. Check-in was smooth, and the staff were friendly and welcoming. Overall, the room, the peaceful atmosphere, the sea view, and all the little details made my stay very enjoyable.
Disliked: I was aware in advance that there was no traditional breakfast, so that was absolutely fine. A small selection of cereal, milk, Actimel, and packaged croissants was provided in the room. It would have been nice, however, to have a little more personalization during the stay — for example, being asked whether I preferred a particular cereal or needed more of something. One small point that I found a little unfortunate was the handling of the towels. I had left used towels hanging because I intended to reuse them, but they were later folded and placed back on the bed. I would have preferred them either to be left where they were or replaced with fresh ones, simply to avoid any uncertainty.
Great Value for money. Stunning views from our bedroom windows. Staff were lovely
Liked: Lovely view of St Ives Harbour, room was big bright and clean. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Disliked: We liked everything about our stay.
Liked: As advertised. Close to Rail and Bus station.
