A fabulous place to stay. Creetown is beautiful and the accommodation is friendly, safe, and spotlessly clean, as well as being very comfortable. It is also fantastic value. With a very comfy bed, great shower, free tea and coffee and a TV in the bedroom, this was a superb place in which to stay and unwind after a long day's travel. The manager is a lovely gentleman and was very helpful. I will look forward to staying here again soon

Third time for me. Keep coming back because of the location, the friendly staff, the comfy rooms. They have done some upgrades this year with a bigger kitchen and better eating area. Love the Gem Rock Museum nearby.

Coastal village stay

Spent a night in this former pub and was really impressed with the standard of facilities and cleanliness. Arrived a little late so had to arrange with reception lady entry to the site. Lady was very helpful and friendly. Stayed in a two bed room and was fortunate to have it all to myself.

Brilliant budget place to stay.

Place is immaculate. Manager very helpful and pleasant. Great budget room with en-suite. Plenty of parking at back next to entrance. Was very quiet apart from a large family that arrived and seemed to be up and down stairs for about an hour. Having said that total peace and quiet throughout the night. Had a great nights sleep. Would definitely stay again!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
This is basically a hostel, even the private room felt like that. No amenities in the room or bathroom, or even a place to set shampoo in the shower. I also had confusing communication about how to get in after 7:00. That said, the people were nice, the bed was clean and comfortable, and the kitchen was handy (especially since all I could get for dinner was frozen cottage pie at the shop, which closes at 8:00!). All in all, an “okay” experience.

Lovely stay for the price

Lovely place to stay for the price, staff are excellent and very friendly and the room was comfortable enough for the price point with a good shower (temperature and water pressure), however, there was a smell of dog to the room (which we did not raise with the staff as the accommodation is pet friendly), and unfortunately due to the sensitive fire alarms we could do anything about this (aerosols would have set off the alarm). Bathroom had some mould around the shower door, and on the ceiling (painted over) due to the underpowered extractor fan and inability to naturally ventilate due to the sensitive fire alarm. Radiator was quite small to the size of the room, due to the cold weather it was pretty cold at times but extra duvets were available to us. Overall, it was a pleasant stay and we would stay again but you need to be accepting and aware of the price point, and the budget nature of the accommodation.
