Site being unmanned and codes not working. Man from next door sorted things out but I felt I was being a nuisance to him.

If I had known there were 61 stairs to climb to my room, plus the site is unmanned and I hadn't been given door entry codes. When I received the codes, the front door wouldn't open! The electric towel rail didn't work. I couldn't find the switch for it! Generous size rooms. The bathroom was across the landing. Being older and currently experiencing sore knees and feet things were not ideal.

Due to phone probs I could not receive the codes to get in and had to ask the girl working in the bar next door to run upstairs and get codes and parking sheet. She was very kind and it would have been in quite a predicament

The room was very warm with a small window open for ventilation. The fan provided was very noisy to use at night, and not really efficient for the summer heat. Although I liked that parking was included, it wasn't clear how close to the accommodation that was at the time of booking. We were aware that access was up stairs but other guests should be aware that all rooms are situated from the first floor up to ours which was on the third floor.

I liked that parking was included. Check in was simple with the key codes being shared by text. The room was clean and equipped for our needs. Tea and coffee, clean towels and extra bedding were available. It is centrally located so a great base for our trip.

The walls are so thin, i was kept awake until about 4:30 am as you could hear people snoring in the next room and every time someone flushed a toilet

Clean, great location

Ok but too warm

Parking was a little far from the property. Fan that was provided made an awful noice which made it unusable at times. We stayed when it was up to 30 degrees which was not ideal.

Location was great. Definitely good value for money. Easy check in process. Room was very spacious.

Tough to load / unload luggage on arrival and departure. Lots of stairs with bags. Tiny TV - not a big deal!

Great location. Good value.

Carpets everywhere which amazes me in England - there were even carpets on the stairs and at the entrance to the building. It's impossible to keep them properly clean.

Very good location, we stayed one night and had a good sleep. Big plus for a free car park (it's not so close to the building though, you need to have a walk to the parking). Big bathroom for our room. Good value for money in Lake District.

Nothing.

Great location for all amenities in Ambleside and a great base for local walks and transport. We have stayed here before, and the property is clean and spacious with great housekeeping and a good supply of tea, coffee, and hot chocolate.

The bed wasn't comfortable and the window blind didn't work

It was very basic and the bed wasn't too comfortable. The location was very convenient

Location spot on. Bit of noise from Lilys Bar but we were fine with it. Maybe not ideal for families at weekends?

For two people, the room size was cozy and perfectly adequate. Though slightly compact, this is typical for accommodations in old town areas and contributes to the authentic experience of staying in such a quaint and historic location. The hotel offers free parking, which is a great perk. But the parking is located a bit farther away.

I had stay at this hotel, perfectly situated in the heart of the town center. Its prime location makes it incredibly convenient, with the supermarket, restaurants, and other local attractions all within walking distance. The small-town setting adds a unique charm and makes exploring the area a truly enjoyable experience. The room features a modern electronic lock system, and the owner promptly provided the passcode via message and email, ensuring a smooth and hassle-free check-in process.

Not too sure what you could do about the unpleasant odour coming from the toilet.a longer cord for the kettle to be able to use it on the desk on the tray.

The Electronic locks are a pain in the neck. Change them please. Car parking provided is great but a long walk from apartment. Just glad it was good weather. Suggest you pack only what you need for a night to carry there.

Location good. Close to everything in town.

No storage for our clothes, room was a lot smaller than the photos (guess you used wide angle lenses for the photos which is deceiving) and there were false nails on the top of our bed frame when arriving so worry to room wasn’t properly cleaned before we arrived.

Great location, and had everything we needed for the small trip
