For £20.00 per night you really cant go wrong. The rooms are basic, but the bedding is clean and the full breakfast is good. Staff are friendly and helpful and it is only a 5 minutes walk into the town centre. We stayed over for a wedding last week for two nights and slept very well both nights. Off street... more

I wouldn't recommend staying here!!! The rooms are terrible and look like they haven't been cleaned for years! Also, the staff are not very hospitable. There are so many much nicer places to stay in Ipswich for a similar price. more

The moment i made the booking, i know this would be entirely a different experience, as the gentleman who took my details was thorough from the beginning. Myself working in the hotel industry myself since past 13 years, always in big size hotels have always opted for smaller places, but this one gave me the feeling of being cared for... more
