Remember that it's student accommodation. The rooms are a good size and well finished. There is a gym and a pool on the campus, but it is necessary to drive into town for restaurants. This place is perfect for a quick one-night stay.

The location is beautiful and very handy from Exeter St Davids station. It is a steep uphill walk from there, but I enjoyed it. My room was clean and functional as advertied. The breakfast was excellent with a huge variety if options.

Fantastic option for a reasonably priced couple of nights stay! Basic student accommodation with no frills. Water piping hot and room spotlessly clean. Staff were more than helpful and looked after me very well. The buffet breakfast was great and a good selection. Some gluten free options are available. It’s about a 20 - 30 minute walk (I walk quite fast) from the station and also to town. NB there is a very steep hill to the campus so if you’re pulling a suitcase it could be wise to take a taxi from the station! So if you’re looking for a cheap overnight stay with no frills but safe, clean and comfortable- then this option is ideal! Plenty of tea and coffee is available. Hairdryers are available upon request. Loved it’

Sadly disappointing. We had a small room on the top floor with two small windows - not the full length windows shown in the pictures. So the room felt dark and very basic. Small bar of soap was the only toiletry provided. Tiny kettle- not big enough for 2 cups even though we’d booked it as a double room. Not the fault of the accommodation provider but the noise from the seagulls was so loud throughout the night that we had to close the windows but there was no fan or other means to circulate the air. So the room was hot and stuffy. I’m sure other rooms in the buildings are better but sadly that wasn’t our experience.

It is a nice experience. The condition and cleanliness of the room is good. It would be perfect if there was an electric fan in the room during the summer time.

Very convenient for Exeter graduation ceremony being 7 min walking distance from the Hall and having car park 🅿️. Rooms are small but practical and clean. Breakfast is basic but fast. Note coffee machine breaks regularly and needs fixing, which takes times. There is nothing you can do about screaming seagulls, who apparently never sleep. 🙉 There is an amazing view and seating area next to receiption. We made perfect family photos for our lasting memories!

OK but not in hot weather
On the plus side the parking was good and there were nice views. However it is very institutional - no flexibility about check in, breakfast chaotic as though they were not used to catering for more than just a few people and absolutely sweltering rooms. A small fan just moved the hot air round and the windows hardly opened. Not a good place in hot weather. No room servicing, even though an email said it would happen.
