The gentleman who checked us in was nice, though it seems he may have been the only member of staff at the hotel as he mentioned working housekeeping duties too? The restaurant was closed for refurbishment so we walked round to the hotel next door for food. The rooms were noisy, we could hear a fellow guest snoring through the wall.

Room was ok. Cleaning not good. No food or drink facilities. Didn't listen to my phone request for a downstairs room due to my disabilities. Wouldn't let me charge car overnight as it is a Rapid charger. Charging a good price but if you go over an hour you are charged an extra £4 - this is wavered if uou are staying at the hotel

Good stay and location, potential to be better.

The stay was perfectly fine, and the staff were friendly. Hotel is in need of some TLC or investment however. The restaurant and bar area is currently closed, and when we were there, there was minimal staff. Has a lot of potential to be a great place for accessing the rest of Devon area.
