Guest Reviews
- Heather (7/5): Nice large spacious room but a bit sparse. - We chose the location as we both grew up there. So we knew it well and went to visit family as well as a trip down memory lane. With a bit more attention to detail, I would have rated it higher but many minor defects. The shower didn't work. The kettle and cups were too small. Mostly clean but lots of dust on lamps. Horrible lime scale on bath taps, in wash basin and toilet. The plug didn't hold water in the wash basin. The bath towels were too small. The bed wasn't very comfortable and there was a tear in the bottom sheet. We had to ask for a 2nd chair to sit in as there was only one provided.
- Lisa (8/5): - Good location, clean room, nice decor. No cups for coffee, shower head doest rest on holder.
- Sachin (7/5): - Location was great and hotel room was clean and spacious. Also the smart tv was nice to have in the room too Bed mattress was quite solid and pillows were quite thin, feel like that was the only downside.
- Guest (10/5): -
- Johan19 (2/5): We booked 2 nights but couldn't stay a second night and had to find alternative acommodation - There was parking and the room had an iron and ironing board. The room itself appeared quite clean compared to the rest of the place. When we entered the property, there was a horrible curry smell inside the building. It was Monday and the restaurant downstairs was closed, so the smell did not come from there. Going up the stairs, we were greeted by a random old mattress and half a bed base at the top landing. The carpet down the hallway was absolutely filthy and the choking curry smell hung in the air. We entered the room and there was a very small double bed with the most uncomfortable mattress and the curry smell. We couldn't sleep as a result of the curry smell and the extremely uncomfortable mattress. The description said there would be complimentry toiletries. The containers were there but they were basically empty. The bodywash didn't last one shower. The shower temperature is almost impossible to regulate. All in all, it was the worst stay we've ever had and we do travel regularly. Unfortunately, this time we had to book last minute and in a hurry, so I didn't have time to read reviews. I only read the reviews on Google maps and was expecting the filthy carpet but not to the extent it actually is. Also, I don't usually use booking.com and when I searched for acommodation, I selected "hotels only" option, so wasn't even expecting an airbnb.
- Sue (5/5): Difficult to find, disappointing for the price and lack of facilities. - No breakfast available except for other local restaurants. Carpet looked stained and dirty leading to room. No hairdryer and the messing about trying to obtain the codes for access which we should have received prior to arriving.
- Patrick (5/5): - The room was OK ,clean and the bathroom was good once I had sorted out the shower. There was some confusion about my booking and getting access to the room took three conversations but the staff involved were very helpful.
The WI-Fi didn't work at all.
- Diane (10/5): Excellent location would definitely use again - Large room The room was hot
- Alfred (8/5): -
- Tony Arban (10/5): -
- Lisa (10/5): -
- Helen (9/5): -
- James (4/5): Could be a great spot but needs a bit more care and attention - Room was spacious and warm Room was not clean or ready on arrival. No staff to help on a few occassions, though this may have been because it was christmas.
- Elizabeth (7/5): - A good location on Wharlingham green, close to restaurants and shops. Temperature of the shower difficult to control. The apartment was above a restautant that had live music one night during our stay. The music ended at about 11 so did not bother us too much.
- Alisdair (4/5): - The room and bathroom were good, once in my room it was of a good standard. The carpet as you walk in and leading up to the room was absolutely filthy to the degree i nearly didn't proceed upstairs
- Philip (8/5): Very convenient and could be. 10/10 with the above comments attended to. - Hi
Room was very clean and good location plus fee parking. Very uncomfortable mattress and a very small bed. 4ft 6 .
It was a large room which would easily taken a 5ft or more.
Main stair carpet was very dirty and old bed and mattress against the wall at top of stairs which is not a pleasing look, and gives the impression that the rooms will be the same, which they are not.
- pat (5/5): Adequate but not particularly comfortable - No breakfast
Convenient location Traffic noise
No hairdryer
Sparse furnishings
Hard mattress
- Kevin (8/5): I was pleasant enough and served the purpose. - The location was convenient for me and met my expectations. I would happily stay there again if I need to be in the area. The lack of any human interaction to check-in was somewhat unusual, but it did work. Access through the exterior door could have been explained better.
- JANE (10/5): - Great location - nice and clean, lovely decor- smooth easy access- great communication from staff answering queries before arrival. Would recommend and stay again. Only thing I would change is to have a firmer.mattress but I suffer with my back and it's a personal preference.
- Paulo (10/5): -
- Paulo (8/5): - Do espaço, localização e o tamanho do quarto
- Jude (9/5): -
- Julie (10/5): Everything was perfect and owner was very helpful letting us check in early - It was set in a perfect location. Lovely and clean.
Bed was very comfortable.
Nice to have a bottle of water left in room and facility to make tea and coffee. Nothing
- Cecile (1/5): -
- Bishop (10/5): Exceptional -
- Ailsa (3/5): Such a shame as could be a great place - The location was great, and the restaurant downstairs was fabulous.
Bathroom was nice The beds were very small doubles and very uncomfortable. One of the beds was so hard it felt like sleeping on the floor
The other one was so soft and uneven it felt like there was no springs in the mattress.
The place was very dusty, big clumps of dust and fluff in corners and behind/around all furniture
It was stated it was on a quiet road however you could here the noise from the pubs and all the cars untill very late at night. Definitely not quiet
One of the couples locked themselves out of the room, we tried to contact the host to see how we could get back into the room and she never replied to us.
We rang and messaged multipletimes, but nothing in 2days we were totally ignored home now and still not had a reply!
- Sheila (10/5): Lovely Stay - Location
- Tracy (8/5): Nice clean room in a lovely location - Lovely clean rooms Having a hair dryer would be helpful & possibly a fan in the room if requested as the rooms were very warm
Mattress was very hard, I slept fine but my husband didn't
- Dudley (6/5): Pleasant - The room was comfortable and had everything we needed. The carpet on the stairs and corridor is very dirty and worn, leading to very poor initial impression. I think it should be replaced as soon as possible.
- Faria (9/5): Superb - Location was excellent, bed comfy
- Philip (6/5): Pleasant - Location and was very clean. The stair and hallway carpet were filthy. The skirting floor edging was all away from the skirting. The bed was only a small double when there was room for at least a 5 ft.
The mattress was cheap with no guts and very uncomfortable.
Please let me know when all the above has been attended to and we will re-book.
- Richard (8/5): Great, clean and comfortable - Clean and comfortable
- Kate (7/5): Hideaway review - Location was great for what we needed. Room was a good size & bathroom nice.
Host was very helpful :-) The mattress was so firm, no give in it at all. Didn't sleep well because of it
- Pugh-panther (8/5): Very good - Andrew issue with room 7 at arrival ment a delay. The problem was dealt with and the staff were helpful. Room 6 is in need of repairs. Trim around the edge of the floor needs attention.
- Andrew (7/5): Great place for a short stay. -
- Sundial-by-the-sea (8/5): Very good -
- Ghazala (9/5): Superb -
- Anita (5/5): Convenient, clean & helpful staff - Locational great for us, very clean, handy to have a restaurant below. The shower curtain fell down on us, not very robust. People smoke in the rooms and we could smell this quite strongly in communal areas. Kindly someone let us in our room as we left the key in the car so my husband went to get it, meanwhile I waited outside the room, it was a nice gesture but made us worry people could get in our room, we didn’t know who this person was, I think he was staying opposite. I presume he was staff but we didn’t know that.
- Victoria (10/5): 10/10 - Super quiet , clean really cute Well designed
- Gillian (1/5): Bad -
- Desmond (10/5): A perfect place to stay in a charming part of town. - I love the fact that it was so centrally located in Warlingham. Everything was just a short step away, including the fabulous restaurant downstairs. I also loved the simplicity of the room. Really elegant, really comfortable and really clean. I have no reservations about this property. The only thing I didn’t like was having to leave. 😊
- Alan (7/5): Very pleasant, suited our needs. - The cleanliness of the room. The carpet in hallway.
