"Good location. Was offered a free drink instead of housekeeping but then despite giving my voucher to the bar and saying I wanted to claim the drink, I was charged £7.50. The room was ok but the bathroom smelt like a urinal and was really unpleasant. Not the standard I’d expect for this chain."

Exeter needs more cabs or Uber! Could not get a cab on a Saturday afternoon! Quite a hassle to return my car to Enterprise , then take a bus in the opposite direction to the train station.

4/5 - Good

Exeter was interesting. We went to the Exeter Cathedral and don’t miss it if you go. The only down side to the Best Western is if you use your GPS to find it you can be routed on some very narrow roads coming from the south east. Call for directio

An excellent place to visit. The cathedral is a jewel that shouldn’t be missed. It is a gateway to Dartmoor, another place which people should visit. Grismpound is a must see place of discovery.
