mixed feelings about my stay
overcooked fish road noise
the room was clean and spacious enough for a short stay.
The food quality was unfortunately lacking. My fish was overcooked, and the accompanying vegetables were bland. also, i found the noise from the nearby road quite bothersome, especially since i had to keep the window open due to the warm weather. the traffic sounds persisted late into the night, disrupting my sleep.

really good stay with fine views
modern room good sized room friendly staff varied menu
The rooms were comfortable, good sized, modern, and also spotlessly clean. a little balcony offered a view over the river. This was an added bonus. the staff were very friendly and took time to get to know me. breakfast had plenty of choice. The varied menu in the evenings was a plus.
The bathroom was a little cramped. I found the bed very hard.

My room provided a superb view of the Tamar bridges. Breakfast offered many menu options. The hotel supplied a bath sheet size fluffy towel. The staff were friendly, cute, and helpful.

captivating view convenient parking warm staff kind gesture
The location offered captivating views of the water and the iconic bridge. Parking was convenient, situated right next to the hotel. This ensured a worry-free arrival. The cute staff created a home-like atmosphere. I received a breakfast sandwich to take with me as I had an early start, a gesture I found very kind.
I noticed a thinner tog rating for the duvet might improve comfort during the summer months.

The pub provides good food at sensible prices. Three dining options cater to different preferences. Guests can unwind in the cosy bar area or enjoy a meal by the picturesque river. I found the menu choices superb.
