My stay was comfortable and convenient, easily worth the cost.

The location is a perfect fit for me, the facilities are well cared for and the premises are clean. The staff are helpful and friendly. I have stayed here on a few occasions and found it comfortable and convenient, and the parking is largely reliable even if the car park is a little small.

I have stayed here a few times and found the wifi connection in some rooms a little unreliable. The water pressure in the shower can be a little bit low and on one occasion, I unfortunately ran out of the provided toilet paper as the rolls were low upon arrival.

Excellent value for money, friendly staff, clean and comfortable.

The staff were very friendly whenever I saw them. They were happy for people to eat takeaway food in the dining room although I didn't take advantage of that offer. The room was clean and comfortable. The breakfast was available to help yourself to, and there was a decent choice for a continental style breakfast.

The water pressure in the shower could be better, it took a long time to rinse the shampoo out of my hair. The WiFi kept dropping out in the bedroom, but was fine downstairs.

A place apart

This was a great Guesthouse. Teresa and Tony were most welcoming on our arrival. Our room was immaculately spotless and very comfortable. We just loved the atmosphere of the place. The bar was cosy with a great drinks selection.

Nothing to say here.

Stress-free

I was a guest for a week and can only report good things. The staff are very nice and helpful with all questions about the guesthouse or things to do in and outside of Ipswich. My room was clean and met my expectations and needs. I would choose the inn again if I were to come to Ipswich. Thank you for a carefree time.

The most fabulous guest house experience… to be sure!!

The great feeling of welcome when we walked through the door. It was the same welcome feeling we felt the whole stay. Nothing was too much trouble. A fantastic guest house experience. Clean, comfortable and peaceful.

Two minor things… no hairdryer or bar fridge. Add them and it would be perfection plus!

The room was basic but clean. Didn’t see any staff and disappointed that no access to breakfast, despite a confusing review that commended the Old Times for the breakfast ?

If you're looking for a base camp, perfectly good. Be prepared to wait for taxis!

Good size room (family ... 1 double + 2x singles) and comfortable beds.
