Really helpful staff - go out of the way to make sure that everything is as you would wish. Great breakfast, good wi-fi, on-site parking was provided, room fairly typical of city small hotels/guest houses but perfect for our needs. All in all excellent!

Shirley

Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities
The owners and staff were amazing and did everything they could to make ones stay perfect. The food was delicious and well presented, plus special diets were all covered. All jolly friendly and attentive. Love the quirky decorations. It was so good there that I am thinking of booking my whole family in next year for our annual get-together. Only one other comment - your cleaner needs to be more thorough. I was in the single room (16?) and some areas were extremely dusty, like the top of the wall light for instance. I left a full feed-back sheet in the room and I hope the cleaner handed it in and didn't tear it up because of what she might have read! Maybe it willl give her a nudge in the right direction! A big thank you to Telstar - i have already recommended you to friends who visit Exeter every year.

The staff was super helpful with tips of things to do in the city and also by allowing me to store my bag after checking out. The breakfast was very good, and the location is convenient, close to the train station and within walking distance to the city center.

Value for money and comfortable
It's a nice enough hotel, close to the centre and either train station. There were several nice touches in the room, including a cafetiere. Nice big breakfast, served with a smile.
