+The first thing to be clear is that this is student accommodation, in student halls. That said, it was very clean, fresh bedding & access to the kitchen facilities in the block, take your own tea, coffee & milk though. Towels are provided and the rooms have an en-suite. There is a shop on site and a cafe so you don’t have to go far for essentials. It’s suitably located for access to Penryn & Falmouth but unless you like a long walk then a car is a must but there is also a bus stop on site. It’s cheap & cheerful and does the job, just don’t expect the Ritz. I would definitely use it again
+Lovely grounds and easy bus links into Falmouth and Truro. Free parking but a long way from the accomodation. Room was OK size but there was no kettle- needed to go to the kitchen to make drinks. Kitchen is good if you want to self-cater. Bed was not good- needed new mattress to be honest. Walls were thin- could hear person snoring in next room.
“Nice hotel”
+Excellent staff , lovely and clean , comfortable rooms
+Diese Unterkunft hatte nur zwei Vorteile: 1) Die Lage eignete sich sehr gut für Ausflüge an die Küsten Cornwalls im Bereich Fallmouth und westlich davon. 2) Das WLAN war sehr schnell wie man es bei einer Hochschule erwartet. Allerdings war unser Zimmer extrem dunkel und muffig. Es lag im Souterrain und über dem Fenster war eine Fußbrücke ins Erdgeschoss. Selbst tagsüber bei Sonnenschein mussten wir das Licht einschalten. Die armen Studis, die in so einem Zimmer ständig wohnen müssen... Wir mussten ständig lüften, da es nach Schimmel roch (allerdings konnte man keinen Schimmel ausmachen). Nach dem Einchecken haben wir um ein anderes Zimmer gebeten. Allerdings lief der Check-In über den Sicherheitsdienst und die Zimmervergabe über die Hochschulverwaltung. Letzere war leider schon im Wochenendfeierabend... :-( Die Gemeinschaftsküche war wie man es in einem Studentenwohnheim erwartet: Steril, etwas unsauber und irgendwie abgewohnt. Fazit: Für 90 € pro Nacht ist diese Unterkunft bei weitem zu teuer. Vielleicht für Gamer zu empfehlen, bei denen ein perfekter Internetzugang an erster Stelle steht ;-) Für einen Urlaubsaufenthalt absolut nicht geeignet.
“Lovely "budget" stay - would stay again”
+We knew what to expect as my daughter stayed there when she was at res so no shocks for us. It is probably more comparable to a private room (with a private toilet/shower) in a self catering hostel with a shared kitchen. We really enjoyed our stay there and would highly recommend it if you are looking for budget accommodation ... just don't expect any hotel luxuries. You obviously get the basics like towels & bed sheets (in case you were wondering). It is a couple of minutes walk to the car park. Having said that, you are allowed to briefly park outside your room to drop your bags off at the beginning of your stay and when you fetch your bags at the end. Everything else was 3-4 times the price when we were looking for accommodation so we saved that by staying here and used the saved money on other fun things :-)
+Great place fantastic staff

“‘No Frills’ is Accurate”
+‘No Frills’ is definitely an apt descriptor. Happy going in knowing as a more budget end option it might not be all shiny and fancy, but it definitely feels like a tacked on “how can we make cash off these buildings out of term with minimum input” rather than a professionally organised accommodation. No complaints about the people we spoke to as they were largely kind and tried to be helpful, but with 0 housekeeping staff at the weekend we couldn't even get an extra pillow without waiting a whole day. Kitchen is ill-equipped for sharing, with only one tiny ‘sharp’ knife and very little cookware for 6 bedrooms worth of people. Self-catered technically, but hugely limited on what you can cook. Not even a tray for something as simple as a pizza! Food and drink nearby is decent when available, but it’s shut so much of the time you rely on the very few takeaways around to eat. Overall it’s definitely functional, but far from enjoyable given the cost was still considerable even as a budget offering. If this is what is offered to students then I feel sorry for them.
+Took a long time to check in. The first room we were given the bed was not made up and no towels. Had to return to reception and be allocated another room. It was late at night and the campus is difficult to navigate when it is unfamiliar. Finally found the other room. Entry was near a waste disposal area that smelt and the room smelt of damp. The window looked out on to a very high grey wall. The room was clean but the experience was underwhelming. Whilst, this is an economy room we recently stayed in similarly priced accommodation abroad which was of superintendent quality.
+Basic campus living, rooms good and spacious, beds comfortable. Kitchen wel equipped, lovely surrounding areas with palms,
+It was a total disaster!
