A Budget hotel that is worth a stay

The guest house was, warm, clean, very peaceful, managed by Haroon and his wife, who makes you feel welcome, Only ten mins walk from Ipswich city centre, a bus stop outside and the train station close by, a few mins away, The hotel is well insulated from any road or train noise, as well as free private car parking alongside.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
This place is a basic guest house, no breakfast offered, choice of on suite or shared bathrooms, the rooms are small with tea and coffee stuff even a microwave, but no shower/ shampoo offered in the rooms. Yes it has free parking next to the property, yes it is 5 minutes from Ipswich train station, yes it is 20 minutes to the town centre, but would I stay there again no.

It’s more of a ‘doss house.’ I don’t mean that in a poor spirited way. It’s just…that is what it is! If it suits your purpose then great. It is …..bar far the worst place I have ever stayed.

With its excellent location by the train station, and value for money, staying here last night was perfect! The hotel has everything you will need for your trip. The host was super friendly and accommodating, staying up late to check me in which was greatly appreciated. As a solo female traveler I felt safe and was very happy with my stay.
