Disappointing stay.

The room was clean, but the shared shower and toilet facilities were very small and there was no wash hand basin in the toilet! Unfortunately there was a lingering smell of cooking, even on the second floor where our room was located. Considering the price it wasn’t too bad as a bed for the night, but I won’t be coming back

By far my worst stay ever...

By far my worst stay ever and ive travelled for work for years. It seemed more like a hostel rather than a bed & breakfast. The carpet looked dirty. I had a breakout of spots on my body by the 2nd day. I had a spider crawling all over tge bed & my clothes as I trued to get dressed. I stayed 4 nights & the bins were not emptied at all.
Mould/water damage
Water not flowing properly in sink and also in shower

This place is a basic guest house, no breakfast offered, choice of on suite or shared bathrooms, the rooms are small with tea and coffee stuff even a microwave, but no shower/ shampoo offered in the rooms. Yes it has free parking next to the property, yes it is 5 minutes from Ipswich train station, yes it is 20 minutes to the town centre, but would I stay there again no.

Great for short stay

All you need if looking for something clean, basic, quiet and set in a lovely area. Very friendly staff, easy check in and check out, next door to train station and local buses. Would recommend for short stay over.

No frills but no fuss!

Cheap and cheerful. Very convenient for train station. Free parking off road. Can't complain given the bargain price I paid. I arrived late and left early. Friendly staff at check in.
