A clean, quiet, nicely decorated room with no rattles or leaks! Good breakfast with plenty of fruit juice and cheerful staff. Ultra convenient for Osborne House (conversely, if you're stuck with a wet day at the seaside there is an obvious attraction across the road!). The walk to Cowes is possibly longer than ideal, but after that breakfast probably needed ... or you could get the bus to Ryde from the other side of the road.

What is the opposite to 'damning with faint praise'? The timer on the light to get up stairs only gave us seconds to climb two flights.... I think that really is the only complaint.

Property was easy to find and perfect location to visit Osbourne House. Original building from Queen Victoria era. Lovely thick walls high ceilings and traditional fire place in room. Lovely friendly staff and excellent cooked breakfast every morning, nothing too much trouble.

The two rooms we had were on front of building which is literally right by the main road. Can be busy at peak times and the main route from coming off the Southampton/E.Cowes ferry . Quieter later on in evening ready for us to sleep though.

Staff was very friendly and welcoming. The room was cozy and nice, with a vintage vibe. The bed was very comfortable. Everything was functional, and there were no leaks or dripping in the bathroom. The location is nice, across the street from Osborne House. Breakfast was tasty, with decent portions.

A bit noisy when there's traffic on the road and the window is opened. No shops near by, only a petrol station. However, there are nice restaurants at 15-20 min walk.

Opposite Osbourne House. Very old building ,but clean, friendly ,food good breakfast .It was free parking and easy driving around Isle of Wight.Staff very friendly and helpful.Twin room ,plenty of room for bed and breakfast.Didnt go back in the day .

Nothing really, you get what you pay for and a bit more.

Great location directly opposite Osborne House and only five minutes from the ferry. The staff were lovely and nothing was too much trouble for them and the breakfasts were excellent. Lovely outdoor area too especially given the beautiful weather when it was nice to sit outside with a drink in the evening.

Slightly strange bar opening hours, but it didn't detract from our enjoyment.

The room was average size, clean and the beds were very comfy, we had an en-suite shower ( but I believe some rooms, don’t have them). The breakfasts were amazing, full English, toast, cereals, fruit, tea, coffee and fruit juice, they even made me some herbal tea. Jo (the manager), and another lady (I didn’t get her name), did an excellent job of getting up to 18 breakfasts out ASAP, then when breakfast had finished, they cleaned the rooms. My husband was a little disappointed that the bar wasn’t open longer, but since the pandemic, customer numbers have fallen. Clive the owner was very friendly, and always gave good advice on places to go. If your wanting to visit Osborne House, to literally across the road, we’re in our late 60’s and managed to walk there. I would definitely recommend staying here, it was an idea base. Oh one day I went back early to wash my hair, but the water was cold, my hubby asked why, and apparently it’s on a timer. Saturday night was karaoke night, great fun, the customers were mostly locals. It appears some of the people who have complained about this hotel, didn’t ask why!

Nothing

Room was excellent. Breakfast hot and massive, and the breakfast chef was happy to cook what we wanted. Parking excellent and a bus stop right out side the front door, if you didn’t want to travel by car. Staff friendly and helpful. We would definitely stay there again

clean rooms friendly staff good location for the festival and bus stop right outside to get around

had a issue with fire alarms that went off 4 times on one the nights so no one slept should really got some are money back for that incident

Good WiFi and broadband of between 40-60Mbps Very good made to order full English breakfast Good bathroom, with nightlight Ample parking space Double glazed windows eliminated traffic noise Across the street from Osbourne House for beautiful walks

24" TV could be larger

Had a lovely stay. Very clean and very comfortable. Wish I had stayed longer than my one night. The single room was lovely and very quiet, which I asked for.

Can’t say anything really that I didn’t like. It was a lovely place. The English breakfast was great, however it did make me chuckle when I saw the black pudding, it was the thinnest black pudding I have ever seen, so wafer thin. It was still Delicious.
