Stayed at Colson House a few times this summer. It offers great value - large well presented double rooms, comfortable beds, small but clean bathrooms with decent showers. For a budget guesthouse it’s one of the better ones.

You are sent door entry numbers on the morning of arrival so you are not met by anybody, on arrival we found the bathroom had not been cleaned and there was urine in the toilet (disgustingly unacceptable)and no towels , i called the number on my email and was told if i went to the room next door there would be towels there which there were , appears to be a store room, bottled water is in a decanter tasted like chlorine and was disgusting (doesnt cost much to buy a non branded bottled water for your guests rather than tap water), i have stayed in many hotles and bed and breakfasts, this was poor and not value for money and would not stay here again! Brighton itself was nice and i enjoyed my one night stay but rhis place needs to get its act together

Excellent property. Very clean, good facilities. The shower was very weak though more like a dribble than an actual shower. Apart from that, cant fault it. We will be back

One night stay
Comfortable convenient place to stay…..very clean, nice shower, comfortable bed…(single room). The tv didn’t work (no signal ?) but not important as I had my I-pad to watch tv and the WiFi was good. Central to Kemptown amenities…..

Comfortable and priced perfectly
Comfortable and my solo room was perfect for one person. Stayed a week and didn't want to spend too much time in my room, but this was perfect walking distance to come and go, get food right around the corner, and great bus access. Was a bit surprised at the private bathroom setup being added in to what used to be a closet, but the thriftiness of the idea made it charming and impressive. Staff was amazingly friendly and helpful. Special note: IF YOU BOOK THROUGH HOTELS.COM, you will need to call the hotel and provide them your email for the right check in instructions if you don't receive an email directly from them.

The room was fine and we were impressed that we got service on day two without requesting it. We were not really prepared to have no staff on site. It would have been good to be able to leave bags on the last day as our train to Gatwick was late in the day.

Value for money
I stayed on a Tuesday night in the single room on the top floor. It was basic but good value for money. The bed was comfortable, room was quiet, tea and coffee facilities, and codes on doors so no keys needed. Check in and out is remote, which means arrival time wasn't an issue. The only thing that would have made it better is a hot shower, it was lukewarm and ok for a quick wash. Tap had hot water, so maybe there was a nack to getting the hot water going that I didn't figure out. Would definitely stay here again.

No service!
We came on a business trip, and the room was very clean and beautiful and the guest house was very well well located. We wanted to love it, but there was no internet for a day. They fixed it after a day, but for the whole time the shower was broken, we called and called to seek help from the owners, but they were never in the guest house and didn't return any of our calls, their internet site did work either. We couldn't take a shower for three days!
