Stayed 1 night here. The room was clean and had everything in it that I needed. The en-suite bathroom was good but only 1 small towel was provided for drying yourself after the shower, another larger towel would have been nice. You also had to pick up a tiny soap packet from the foyer which was just enough for my stay.The breakfast in the morning was well cooked and delivered in a timely fashion. But the glasses for the juices where small resulting in the need to refill it during the meal. The staff where friendly and helpful (they let me use an iron and ironing board).

Rooms very good for guest house but obviously not hotel size or standard. Really friendly and helpful service by the family that owns it, including good choice of tasty breakfast - I had bacon and poached egg. 20 min walk from Filton Station, 8 mins and about £4 from Bristol centre and also really handy for Abbey Wood.

Nice clean room - did the job. Unfortunately my shower door wasn't fixed for my return despite manager being told in morning. Can appear a strange place if arriving at night, Chinese manager very laid-back but friendly guy once he understands the question. I would use again :)

Nice clean room, comfortable bed, excellent ensuite for the double room we booked. Would use again if needed. Parking also good. Owner rang to give directions to car park which was very useful.

Quiet and comfortable. Stayed two nights in single room while visiting a friend with kids in the area, and wanted to ensure a good night's sleep! Room was small and basic but perfect for my needs. Bed was quite soft, which might be a negative for some. Staff were flexible and accommodated my later check-in time. Breakfast (additional 12 pounds cash or pre-pay with booking), was a decent fry-up with the usual fixings, not the best, but a perfectly serviceable start to a busy day. Location is far from the center city, though it is on one of the main bus lines. Relatively close to Bristol Parkway train station too.

Stayed here for 2 nights while we visited friends and to watch the football the guest house was very clean and the room had everything we needed. The beds were comfy and the shower was powerful. The location is great as well not to far from the centre and it has a nice pub just down the road.

Fantastic little hotel, the lady that welcomed us was very friendly and informative If you aren’t an idiot getting to the car park is no problem, instructions were sent via email says before (Bevan Court is the road you have to go down) Room was lovely, very clean and spacious - bigger than the pictures suggested Fixed prices too which is great, no surcharge for staying at the weekend like other hotels Toiletries were offered, but we weren’t staying for a shower. Better this was as there’s less environmental waste for those that don’t use the products 10/10 would recommend for Bristol
