Could have done with an extra pillow and maybe a mattress topper on the bed but otherwise everything was great. Very good value. Very helpful when we had to check in late.

Room was ok. Cleaning not good. No food or drink facilities. Didn't listen to my phone request for a downstairs room due to my disabilities.
Wouldn't let me charge car overnight as it is a Rapid charger. Charging a good price but if you go over an hour you are charged an extra £4 - this is wavered if uou are staying at the hotel

Good hotel for the price. Room was clean and had the basics. Only downside it was quite noisy at night being next to a main road. Other than that it was a pleasant stay
Thank you we had overnight stop
Staff are very helpful

Good stay and location, potential to be better.
The stay was perfectly fine, and the staff were friendly. Hotel is in need of some TLC or investment however. The restaurant and bar area is currently closed, and when we were there, there was minimal staff. Has a lot of potential to be a great place for accessing the rest of Devon area.

very disappointing, looks very run down from the outside, photos are obviously from better times. Restaurant shut down and derelict, room clean but basic with lino floor and tiny shower. Only positive was the convenient location from the M5

It was spotlessly clean and the owner more than helpful. It is a shame that there is no restaurant on site at present but the meal at the hotel a short walk away was fine.

Very pleasant hotel.
Very pleasant hotel , rooms clean and comfortable, good service from hotel staff. Only downside, window was ceiling window with blind so no natural light . Unfortunately bar and restaurant not open due to outside company not turning up. Nice pub serving food about a 10 minute walk . Would stay again.

The hotel and rooms are ok but the bar and restaurant are shut and you can’t even sit in there, some legal dispute apparently, so it’s not great to stay in. We were going to an event so it was fine but wouldn’t stay here otherwise.
