    The Washinton is well located for university open days and serves as a great base. Although the walls are a little thin and the our toilet was a little tempermental, the shower was good, the beds were comfortable and the staff really couldn't have been nicer.

    The stairs. This is a guesthouse and great for one night stay over. I felt the pictures online were misleading to what it looked like in reality. I have definitely stayed at places where the photos of the room are closer to the reality and cost less.

    The breakfast, tea choices in the room. The bed was super comfy. The location was convenient for what we needed to do, but not the prettiest.

    No mention when booking about £10 parking fee. Also leaflet in the room said parking was £8. Bit dusty downstairs where our room was due to builders being in.

    Good position with off road parking. Great staff .fab shower

    A lot of modernization is needed. The soap holder in the shower is loose and about to fall off.

    Quiet location off the main roads. Much cheaper than other hotels in Bristol.

    Parking was tricky due to the number of work vans taking up several spaces and we had to pay extra to park. The bathroom was 'tired' with a cracked basin. The wall lights by the bed were not properly fixed to the wall and there was a massive crack in the ceiling.

    Breakfast was very good - cooked breakfast was hot, prompt and the eggs were cooked to our different tastes. Bed was super comfy and clean. All the staff we encountered were polite, professional and helpful.

    Continental breakfast options were a little limited, but it's better to be that way than have wastage.

    Staff were excellent and attentive. All communication with the hotel prior to arrival was great. The hotel facilities themselves are a bit dated and basic but gives you everything you need and is very comfortable. I would highly recommend to anyone looking for an affordable night in Bristol.

    Decor very dated and tired. Too many steps especially for elderly.

    Location excellent for bars, restaurants, transport . My initial room 27 was very noisy from outside noise. When I enquired about the possibility of moving to a quieter room they gave me room 73 which was satisfactory. Though some nights I was awakened by noisy guests which of course is no fault of the hotel.
