Hideway Dartmouth

The rooms are central to everything that you could possibly want/need. If you are looking for the height of luxury, this is not for you but if you just want the basics and a decent bed to sleep in, then I recommend "The old Brasserie & Rooms @ no.8"

Good location.

Way below standard expected for rate being charged. Budget room, shocking external windows (dilapidated), weak shower, noise when taps run, windows didn’t lock. The gutters were overgrown with foliage and sounded like a waterfall outside during light rain. We had two sleepless nights as a seagull family lived outside the window and screamed throughout our stay, day and night. The bed was shockingly soft with zero back support.

The bed was uncomfortable and too small and had no bedside table on my side. There was no TV. it would be ok for young people who had no interest in TV. Never been in a room without a TV......😐

Location was great Not much else

Room and bathroom not great Bedding all mismatched and poor mattress. No ear plugs as so noisy from the seagulls nesting right outside the window,even when the windows were shut,and it was hot!! and the Big let down NO Telly!!!! You just assume all rooms have a telly, So after a long day all we heard was seagulls 🙁

Location

Most things

Nice location in the heart of Dartmouth

Entrance is through a disused restaurant - very off-putting Details say up two flights of stairs - there were four! Details also said parking available in booking.com search - when I booked the details said parking nearby - neither statement is true. we paid £10 per day for the out of town park and ride, with a bus into Dartmouth every 20 minutes. (Please note - I booked in January, so this may have changed since time of booking). We paid for what was described as a "luxury king sized ensuite room. although the bed was king sized, the mattress was old and worn out, with broken down edges. the mattress also smelled revolting - as if something had been spilled on it (or worse) and it had been sprayed with febreze. All the window catches were broken, meaning the windows either had to be left wide open, (at risk of seagulls coming in!) or closed. The bathroom door handle was broken, so it would not close. The towels were very thin and old, although a nice big size! But the worst... as stated, empty restaurant on ground floor. owner accommodation on first floor, two flights up, rental accommodation on second floor, a further two flights up. We checked out at 0915 on 6/7, and could hear the owners in their rooms - the door was open. As I reached the bottom of the stairs, I lost my footing - the stairs have a cutaway at the bottom where the lower door is. I fell forward and was unable to save myself as the actual stairwell is very narrow. I cried out, and my body made a noise as I hit the floor. My husband managed to get me up off the floor, but nobody came to see if I was ok, or even called down the stairs to me. My husband had to leave me on a bench, get the bus to the park and ride (see comment about parking!), then return for me. We drove back home (an hour away), spent the day in ED, and i am now in a cast for 6 weeks with two broken ankles and a broken fibula.

The hosts were very friendly, helpful and provided very clear and detailed yet concise instructions. The flat was easy to book and access. It was on a beautiful street not far from the river and amenities. It was a great price and on top of that was really nicely done up and comfortable to stay in. I felt so impressed I'd highly recommend.

Nothing. 10/10 exceptional!!

Location. Nice and clean Owners replied quickly to requests.

Bed was uncomfortable.

Size of Bed fine.

Small Dark room, window did not close, Seagulls outside window on roof making a noise, shower broken, towels white gone grey and hard. Considering I had booked a delux room I was expecting better.
