Great view and dog friendly
Great location, comfortable and clean room. Nice décor, towels and finishing touches. Nespresso machine in room which was great but bring your own pods and the local shop doesn’t stock them. Dog friendly which is great and many of the local shops/cafe allow dogs too. One consideration for anyone staying is the level of noise from the road due to sash windows. This is not something the business can do anything about but I would suggest that light sleepers might need to consider this and bring their earplugs. Great view, you can watch the world go by for hours.

Lovely view
Didn’t see anyone as self booking. Comfortable bed, room bit barren hard chairs very plain. Views made up for it.

Excellent location
Excellent location opposite the quay. We had the ground floor and was really impressed with the size and layout of the room. Very tastefully decorated and clean. Loved the extra touch of coffee machine, milk and bottles of water in the mini fridge. Only criticism is felt the windows needed some privacy from people walking past looking in otherwise excellent room.

4/10 Fair

Room is good, service-not.
We loved the room, it was clean and with a great view. However, we were very disappointed by the service at the restaurant where we had breakfast. The lady there who I suppose is the owner made us feel unwelcomed, because due to their mistake for some reason our breakfast as they said was not included, but our rate on hotels.com did, so it was unprofessional of her to talk in the way she did and explain to us something that is not our fault in any way. So we felt like we did something wrong, not nice. However, there was a very kind gentleman and a young lady that were very helpful, and friendly and made us feel better and enjoy our breakfast there on one of the days. This hotel doesn't offer room cleaning explaining it as covid related. Check-out is at 10 00 which is quite early, and you need to pay if you want to stay longer. Overall, the location is good, the room is new and clean, and lots of places to see in North Devon.

Nice room with a view
Newly refurbed guesthouse, nice position with views over the estuary. Very friendly service and excellent breakfast at the Royal George which owns it. Only odd thing is the 5-10 minute walk in between.

Great stay
Lovely place, super modern rooms and very clean throughout. The breakfast was really nice in the Royal George and there was a good amount of information in the room about the local area.
