"It did the job and was overall not a bad hotel, but we probably wouldn’t stay there again for the same price."

6.0

Location was good

1) Our room was right nest to a relatively busy road with only single glass windows which meant cars and motorcycles were very audible in our room when we were trying to sleep. 2) Breakfast was not good. 3) It was impossible to get in contact with staff which meant we were unable to enquire about an iron (i.e. never got a reply). Our friend asked before the day whether they could check in early and were told to contact them on the day - but they were unable to contact them on the day and so were unable to check in before the wedding they were going to. I would say don’t tell guests you will sort it on the day and then not reply to messages or calls.

"Well thought out bed and breakfast with close proximity to the city"

9.0

Very clean and friendly staff.Everything was well thought out and very swish.The breakfast was good and delicious pastries especially each morning.There was a cosy area on entering the property and you could get a hot drink or use the fridge and microwave if needed.A nice thoughtful touch.A 20 minute walk took you straight into the city of Canterbury.Across the rd from the bat and ball was a Sainsburys local and behind that was The Kent county cricket ground and a really nice cafe .

Nothing really just the parking is quite tight.But there is parking around the corner if all 4 spaces are full.

Das Zimmer war sauber und schön eingerichtet.

Das Familienzimmer im Dachgeschoss war sehr warm und es gab keine richtige Möglichkeit zu kühlen oder zu lüften. Die Nacht war deshalb nicht besonders erholsam.
