Really enjoyed my stay at Jan's place. The space was private, comfortable, and had everything I needed. Jan was a welcoming host and was easy to chat with when the time allowed. Not too far a walk from the theatre either. Highly recommend.

A lovely place to stay with a lovely friendly host and a nice walk to the theatre. There were a couple of things left behind from previous guests in the fridge and bathroom that possibly shouldn't have been there. But overall a lovely stay. thank you!

I leave milk and ketchup in fridge and women's sanitary products, shampoo and shower gel in bathroom for my guests use, this could have been queried when I checked you in.
Jan is a very friendly, communicative, and helpful host - do send her a message to ask about things. The digs are excellently located for Hall for Cornwall in a very pleasant and quiet area. Mobile reception can be spotty in the studio flat (provider: O2), but that's not unusual for Cornwall!

Great space with lovely host a short stumble from the theatre!

Thanks Tom the great review much appreciated
Janet was a great host and the property was lovely. Very close to HOC and really comfortable. Will definitely stay again :-)

Thank you Jack, glad you enjoyed your stay and felt comfortable. You are welcome back anytime, hope to see you again 😊
Had a really lovely stay here whilst on tour with Grease, and was very close to the theatre with a great kitchenette set up. Only thing I would say was that the sofa bed wasn’t the comfiest so definitely more suited to one guest rather than the two of us!

Thank you Jemma, I did send you photos of sofa bed, it's not like sleeping on a normal bed if course. Wished you had said while staying I would have offered some quilts to put ontop.
Fantastic digs, spotlessly clean and well equipped and a short walk from the theatre. Would highly recommend!

Thank you Louise, really appreciate your review, glad you enjoyed your stay, you're welcome back anytime.
Jan was a friendly, informative and welcoming host. Extrememly communicative and I felt very safe in her studio appartment. 10m walk from theatre, very good space.
27th Oct 2023
Lewis looked after my studio very well and was friendly and engaging, welcome back anytime.
Clean & good distance to theatre. I wouldn't revisit for the price point. It isn't my personal definition of self contained (3 rooms upstairs of Janets house) separated with a curtain and bedroom door. I felt slightly uncomfortable in this set-up.
13th Feb 2023
The place covers entire
upper floor of my home it has solid doors to all rooms, lockable bedroom and a privacy curtain top of stairs. Price point for a flat not a room. As a friendly host with repeat bookings, sorry you won't be one of them.

I had a wonderful stay here and would recommend to anyone passing through! Janet is a very welcoming and kind host.

Thank you for your amazing review Ben, you were a great guest and welcome back anytime.
Janet was an amazing host! Extremely hospitable and friendly. Her place was cozy private and has everything you need. Having my own separate living room was such a nice touch. Can’t wait to come back and stay again. Totally recommend!
26th Jul 2022
Thank you, very pleased you liked the apartment and really hope to host you here again.
Best digs in Truro. A bit more than an 8 minute walk but not enough to hurt. I’m sad I didn’t get to meet Janet. Highly recommend.
28th Jun 2022
Thank you so much Bo, "best Gigs in Truro" is delightful to hear. So glad you enjoyed your stay, hopefully I won't be away next time you book.
I really enjoyed my stay with Janet, it is worth it in terms of location and quality of care. Janet went above and beyond in terms of ensure I was cared for, she provides you with care and comfort during your stay. One to book if ever in Cornwall.

Thank you Kudzai for the lovely feedback, welcome back anytime :)
Janet’s apartment was great. A S uper friendly host and a great location for Hall for Cornwall. It’s about a 15 minute walk I found - google maps says 6 until you click for directions, then it says 15, but still so close and convenient!! Thank you!

Thanks for your kind review. Can imagine it might take bit longer after a show walking up hill, usually takes me 10 mins down hill to HfC x
