Loved it … will be staying again

Lovely, although parking is in public car oark next door

The ship was very disappointing. The bathroom almost flooded when using the shower because of clogged up hair in the drain that had not been cleaned. The bedsheets were stained. A fire alarm then went off at 4am and no staff on site to support us. We were due to leave for London at 6am so no point trying to get back to sleep. When we asked for a refund, hotels.com told us the ship had refused to pay it. Steer clear of this property. The worst service I’ve had.

No complaints

The TV was troublesome

Very helpful staff and good value for money.

Extremely clean , my single room had everything in for my one night stay , great shower , comfortable bed .Very good value for money very good location

One night stop for work near by. Car park was a disappointment as couldn't park the Van due to height restriction. quite noisy as windows are old, but the food and the pub are good, beds comfy and a reasonable price

It's a nice place to stay. Rooms are very nice and tidy. Also., brilliant pub at ground floor 👍❗

Lovely staff and lovely bedroom. Parking was an issue as it was not accurately described

Nice lively place the staff in the bar are outstanding. The big issue is the outside noise. Bin men waking you up at 05:45 is not my idea of fun. Very noisy area

Perfectly adequate for a one night stay. But, unless one knows the area, getting to it via Sat Nav is challenging, and the local parking is a nightmare!:.

Near the center of town.

Don’t go for the shared bathrooms. Very basic property

Good room, but noisy at night. Need some double glazing because got almost no sleep with the shouting, fights and arguing outside the window from everyone pouring out of the clubs.

The propert was lovely, our room was modern and up to date. The beds and pillows were so comfortable and clean! The bathroom was so lovely and clean. I loved that you didnt have to go through the pub to get to the rooms although there was a walkway into the pub at the bottom of the steps if you wished too. Staff were friendly and very helpful.

I stayed in a very clean, tidy and tastefully decorated room, with excellent en-suite with shower. The room was in a modern extension behind the pub, which had various nautical paraphernalia but due to my plans, I didn't get to try out the food or drinks. I had no noise issues. Convenient 5-minute (or less) walk from Chelmsford station. My only disappointment was that breakfast wasn't available, but that probably says more about my planning.

The room was nice a bit cold as the heating was off so when you get out of the bed the temperature was cold. There wasn’t any bottles of water in my room like my friends room. The room itself was clean.

When we arrived the staff were very friendly and welcoming. The room we had was en-suite and very clean. The tea and coffee facilities were great (proper coffee machine in the room). The bed was really comfortable, which made for a good nights sleep. The only thing I would recommend to those using a satnav or maps to find it would be, put the actual address in not just the postcode as ours took us to a different location. Other than that would highly recommend The Ship!!

Stopped here a number of times but this time I was asked for my debit card so they could take the details off it and it was typed into the till. I’m not happy that it could be possibly be accessed by any member of staff and used as I have had this happen before at another hotel. There isn’t much to steal from this hotel it’s pretty minimal

Really clean and comfortable room, toasty warm, good shower

Very pleasant and clean room. Very quiet. Great location. 2 minutes walk to the train station.

Room was nice

It was just a simple bed for the night, but it was comfortable. Also the en suite bathroom was nice

I got a train into Chelmsford for n the afternoon ready for a hospital operation the next day . I met with a young guy at the bar who was staff .he was friendly helpful and a nice intro . The Room was a nice temperature. They gave me an upgrade so I had a king-size bed which is great for my height and difficulty with my legs . Everything was clean and pleasant . Shower and towels really good . Coffee machine and TV . There was a good chair for me to sit and read a paper . There is only single glaze windows so it is noisy on the front street . But that stops about 12 midnight . If I was going out for a meal and some drinks it would be fine . Anyone who is a light sleeper before 12 I wouldn't advise this room. But it suited my needs fine . The bed was really comfortable and it looks like a recent refurbishment. It was a 10 min walk to station and I use crutches . I had a pick up from the taxi the next morning early . There seems to be restaurants and takeaways close by for choice and it's close to town centre . The price was excellent and to me it was good value for money . I didn't try the food at the pub because of my medical circumstances. But I would have done so . I managed the stairs to the rear of the property to get to the toom as there was an adequate rail and good robust iron staircase . I am having a knee replacement. I would have given it 4 stars if it was quieter Although it didn't bother me too much

Windows is not soundproof and older than my grandpa. Plus lock is broken big concern for safety. My room beside a busy road. Whole nights hearing the car drive past noise and windows shaking noise. You have be get drunk to stay sleep unfortunately I don’t drink. Dust behind bed and chair around the room everywhere.

A complicated path up and down stairs to my room but the room was excellent and the staff were friendly and helpful.

Good value for money however as a non smoker I didn’t like the stale smoke smell. No curtains was a bit weird to close off street lights. Bathroom shower head and around door could do with a clean

Good location

Loud music until 12.15 am, shower not working. Building work. Never again.

Is near at center city and station bus -train

Good central position close to train station for a few nights stay. Perfectly adequate accommodation
