Fantastic location with parking and friendly staff. Basic room which was clean and served its purpose. Can’t comment on breakfast as I didn’t use this service.

Solid overall, with it being ideally located close to transport & town centre it was easy to get around.
If you're looking for something that is cheap but gives you a good value for money, then I'd recommend here.
If I'm ever back in the area, I'll book here again.

For a budget hotel it was very pleasant, very clean and tidy, breakfast staff were lovely, and close to the city so a great location
We like this hotel as the location is ideal for both the town centre and the Barbican with its choice of bars and restaurants. We did find a few things that could be improved but nothing that spoilt our stay
1) a bottle of water would be nice in the rooms
2) while our room had a coffee table not in an ideal location to be able to use it for cups as an ample supply of teas and coffees supplied or just to sit around.
3) Breakfast seemed a bit haphazard having to go to different rooms to get what you wanted, I’m sure back in the day breakfast was brought to you ?
Overall a nice stay.
It's perfectly positioned to explore Plymouth. The staff were very friendly, the breakfast was good quality and plentiful.
The bed and pillows were very comfortable.
Amazing service, friendly staff and a lovely place to stay. Would highly recommend staying here

The staff - at reception, in the dining room - where fantastically cheerful, attentive and helpful. Could not fault them.
the hotel itself and our bedroom was well appointed, spacious and spotless. Great location on the edge of the city centre and right by the Hoe. Real value for money
Stayed in the Armada Suite - a self catering two bedroom apartment with kitchen and living room facilities. Very clean and spacious. Plates, cutlery and basic kitchenware provided as well as a cooker, microwave and toaster. Tea, coffee, hot chocolate and biscuits on arrival in room. Loads of drawer space and small wardrobe.
Bathroom clean and bright with lovely big sink and cupboard / drawer storage. Could do with an extractor fan as only got non opening skylight and it did get very hot!
Limited parking on site for extra fee of £10 per night. Otherwise on street parking for approx £20 for 24 hrs.
Reception staff very friendly and welcoming. Excellent location as very close to the town centre and the Hoe. Street noise early evening but soon quietened down. Tescos and Coop both conveniently located nearby.
Would definitely recommend.
