April and Stuart were great hosts, friendly and warm! The room had everything I needed, was clean and comfortable and was an easy journey to the theatre every day. I would recommend!

Thank you so much for a lovely review. We are glad your needs were met. All the best and you know where we are if you need a cosy room in the future…..
Very much enjoyed my stay here. It’s a cosy and very clean private attic room with an en-suite with a lovely hot shower and a kettle and a mini fridge in the room. Easily walkable to the Mayflower theatre and a really good price too. Tip if you are driving ask about the parking in the neighbours drive, it’s a bit extra a week but well worth it as lots of parking restrictions on the nearby roads. Would very happily stay again next time I’m at the Mayflower.

A lovely stay here, April and Stuart are both very friendly and informative. Probably not best for long stays as it is only a room but if thats what you need then its perfect!

Thank you for a lovely review! Yes it is advertised as room only and we have had long stays. It depends what the needs are for individual suitability. Have a great day!
I had a lovely stay with April. The room was clean, comfortable and had a lovely ensuite. I was lucky to be able to park next door otherwise I would have struggled to find parking. The walk to the theatre was a pleasant 15 minute walk. April was friendly and a perfect host. I would stay again.
Thank you for having me!

Had a really lovely stay! A lovely clean room and ensuite, enough space to spend a month and be comfortable. Had a mini fridge and microwave which was very useful. Good location and safe walk home after shows. Was able to find parking when needed. April was so lovely and helpful though out my stay, adding little special touches throughout it. Would definitely stay again and recommend.
