    Some little improvements needed. Our room had blackout blinds that didn’t work fully. Curtains would be a nice touch and make the room cosier. The mattress was very firm so a topper could be an option. Hotel is up a hill which we were aware of so not suitable if you have mobility problems.

    Room was a good size. Basic but very clean. Bathroom shower amazing. Breakfast was very good. The waitresses and reception staff are a credit to the hotel. Nothing not to like for a budget hotel and the price

    The walk up the hill with my luggage (my fault, I do speak some French so should have spotted that there was a clue in the area being called Hauteville!)

    A nice breakfast especially the Guernsey yoghurt Bigger room than expected (thanks!) with a pleasant view across the town

    The TV could be a bit larger. The water supply to the sink was lukewarm or lukewarm from both taps. The toaster took too long and there always seemed to be a queue or people gave up and took bread instead.

    The bed was comfortable. There were more than enough drawers for storage, the shower was large enough and great once it got going past the cold water. The breakfasts were good and I especially liked the prunes and thick yoghurt. The staff were very helpful and supplied jugs of cold water when asked.

    Very small bathroom n shower in a single room.

    Lovely clean modern accommodation, close to town but up hill beware of a climb, not too bad but should be mentioned. Great style n decor throughout. I left early so cannot comment on breakfast but they did offer me a grab bag breakfast which I though was a nice touch. Would def stay again though and great price too.

    The reception didn’t open until 3pm, therefore we couldn’t speak to anyone when we arrived. There was very limited parking which was often used by a local.

    Thé breakfast was excellent and very quick service. There was a good range of options for breakfast and catered for everyone. The manager was very polite and hospitable.

    The WiFi in our room was totally useless, doesn't connect at all across 2 different phones and a 2 different tablets, even trying to connect one device at a time. We were on the top floor so I think they just need more WiFi repeaters on the upper floors. There was some kind of equipment on the roof that kept making a intermittent growling like sound. It wasn't super loud but it was annoying, but you got used to it eventually. One of the pillows really stank of Fish for some reason, we probably could of asked for a different one but my partner only sleeps with one pillow, so we just didn't use it. On our first night the radiator in our bathroom kept emitting what can only be described as a really really loud wet farting sound. We tried to go ask staff about it, but they had already left for the day. We managed to figure out the Radiator just needed bleeding and sorted that ourselves. However the radiator kept getting slightly warm despite having the heat valve shut, so I suspect the whole heating system probably needs checking. None of these are massive issues, especially considering the low price for the room, but they were annoying nerveless, especially the lack of WiFi. The biggest issue though wasn't really the hotels fault, but is one you should be aware of. The hill the hotel is on. You'll have seen other reviews mention it, but I want to clarify: The hill is insanely steep, to the point of being almost unwalkable. It's about a 20% incline in some places. I know Google Maps says it's a "mild slope", but Google is very wrong (they don't have good data for Guernsey). There is no way to get from anywhere to the hotel without having to walk up that hill. There are no benches to rest on on the way and the pavement is tiny. It will take you about 15 to 20 minutes to climb the hill and you will be totally exhausted by the end of it.

    The bed was super comfortable, and came with two good sized pillows. The furniture and room was modern, clean and in good condition. Shower in the bathroom had amazing water pressure and always had plenty of hot water. The staff are friendly and helpful. The breakfast is very tasty but a bit on the small side, I had to fill up on toast alot. The room was very reasonably priced though.

    It would have been nice to utilise the outside space as there are fabulous views. There was overflow leak to rear which could be heard all night!

    Clean and simple, courteous staff and location was nice. We were on second floor which allowed you to see over town an to the sea whilst sat on the loo; exceptional!

    A reasonable room, but not well thought out. One chair either blocked the cupboard door or the bathroom door. The room was fairly damp, but OK with the windows open.

    A reasonable room and simple breakfast in the morning. Totally adequate for a short stay but basic.

    Very noisy footfall above sounded like a baby elephant. Occasional slamming of doors. Would have liked some separate items of fruit such as bananas. No sweetener just sugar cubes. Limited TV channels. Dated bathroom with avocado suite.

    Nice breakfast. Perfectly poached eggs. Fresh fruit salad each morning with local yoghurt. Good sized bedroom with dressing table and armchair.

    This was our second 1 night stay. THis time our room was ground floor but at the front of the building with window opening directly onto the pavement, hence some street noise and also felt less secure. Room very small. Not really room for the 2 armchairs as well as wardrobe and chest of drawers. Sink in room, separate to tiny toilet/shower room, which had a door which wouldn't close properly. Had to keep moving 1 of chairs to get into very small toilet/shower cubicle (with curtain). Toilet/ shower, no hanging space for towels , clean towels were placed on toilet cistern which isn't good and shower overspilled onto floor. I did not feel this room was good value at over £100. It was tolerable for 1 night only.

    it was clean, convenient and breakfast was good.

    Bathroom fittings a bit dated and enamel on bath needed re coating. Breakfast good, but portions small (eg: only 1 rasher bacon, only 1 egg even though i declined beans, sausage etc. I felt the price of over £100 for the room was high.

    Room was comfortable and airy, groundfloor, and quiet. It was larger than expected as it was a family room.

    Nothing really. Just a suggestion to put a jug of water at the breakfast table.

    The room was small but enough for one person, location was good, a bit of walk to the main area but personally I preferred to stay in quiet location. The staff were very polite and professional. The cooked breakfast was really nice.

    There was a power outage on the first morning - weird it was only half the hotel. Noisy fan in the shower. Creaky floor boards. Other guests who seemed to imitate elephants stomping up/down the stairs and generally clattering about. About 20mins walk from the ferry terminal and 15mins from town - hard going uphill, but gravity is your friend on the way down...

    The staff were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast was excellent. The room was spotlessly clean. Splendid shower.
