Location is convenient for St Michael’s Mount, the beach, and buses, though the property sits on a main road and near a railway line, so traffic or bar noise can be an issue for some. Cleanliness feedback is generally positive, but there are occasional reports of musty smells, worn furnishings, maintenance issues, or lapses such as unserviced rooms. Overall, expect a friendly, good-value base with standout breakfasts and modest, old-fashioned rooms.

Great place to stay for the Mount as it was just a short drive away. Everyone was really friendly and the breakfast was first class. Also, no noise from the pub below though it was a Monday I stayed. It's great that there is private parking right outside but it is a bit tight. Overall, very happy!

It is located outside of Penzance and had free parking which is a must for me. Good B&B, small room but all I needed, was clean, 2 supermarkets 5 mins drive away, Mexican restaurant across road and St Micheal’s Mont 10 min drive. Would stay again.

We stayed here for a couple of nights. The location is great especially if you like walking as you can walk to Penzance or Marazion aling the flat walkway overlooking the sea. The hotel has a public bar frequented by locals and is very friendly. Our room was very clean and had tea, coffee, biscuits and a bottle of water each provided. Please note however we weren't provided with shampoo or shower gel but liquid hand soap was provided. The breakfast was made to order and was excellent. The owner, Doreen, is very friendly and helpful. The establishment is dated but very clean. We definitely would recommend staying here especially for a few nights.

Lovely and helpful staff, free parking (first come first serve). Full English breakfast was included in our stay and was made to order. Alternative breakfast like cereals, juices etc also an option, We stayed here as family of four, out most of the day sightseeing. Good access to most the landmarks. The only not so good is it’s on the main road so can be noisy in the night but settles down. Also it’s a feee house downstairs ( although separate access to the rooms) weekend noise till late. Overall great experience and good value. Thanks for making our stay.

Parking available, but a squeeze. Teception is the yraditional, old, small bar. Overall, property dated, clean and, just about functuonal. They have done just about enough to maintain an acceptable modern standard. Our room was very small, with little to no prep. area for ladies. We were only spending an ad-hic evening so we didn't mind. However, on attending for breakfast the next morning, wow, with a capital WOW. The available assortment was unbelievable, far exceeding any expectaions, and the cooked breakfast was, quite simply, the best we have had in our memory. Absolutely superb. The breakfast, and the lady serving it, made wrll up for any, perceived, shortfalls. Hence the 4 stars instead of 3. Unfortunately, we forgot to ask the name of the, sole, lady that took our order, prepped, cooked and served our delicious, ample breakfast. Very well done to her, SHE DEFINITELY DESERVES A PAY RISE. She made our day before it even started.

The property is extremely outdated and in desperate need of refurbishment. Everything from the linens, carpets, and furniture to the building itself and its surroundings is old and worn. The cleanliness is lacking, and there's an unpleasant odor throughout. There was mold in the bathroom, which was so small that it was difficult to move around in. The towels had a musty smell, and the linens were very old. The noise from the road was disruptive, as the windows are not double-glazed, allowing even conversations from outside to be heard clearly. On the positive side, the breakfast was good, and the staff were friendly and accommodating. The hotel is also conveniently close to St. Michael's mount. However, I cannot recommend this hotel to anyone.

Shared bathroom which wasn't mentioned on the advert & female travelling alone, felt vulnerable. Terrible nights sleep for 2 nights, noise from road, bus stop and railway line (2 windows facing road). Breakfast was good though, lovely spread of fresh fruits and good selection & cooked breakfast was nice.

Not really a hotel, its a pub with rooms. Landlord wasnt very welcoming. Room 5 was ok overall (clean and comfortable) but noisy overnight due to other guests using shared bathroom next door. Quiet location though and handy for bus into town. Shower needed repair as it leaked everywhere. With a bit of TLC and better attitude it would be a whole lot better.

A really nice small hotel, very warm and welcoming, the staff very friendly. The breakfast was great, cooked to order as well as cereals, fruits, yoghurts and more as a buffet. There is a kettle in the room and well stocked tea and coffee making items. The room was clean and well maintained if a little dated. The room is quite small ( 5, double room) and had a view of the back of the building which was a little disappointing but not a big problem. Beach access is just down the road and Penzance, Marazion and St Michael’s Mount all walkable. There is a bus stop just outside which we used to go to Penzance and St Ives ( bus 17). Located at a great place for exploring this part of Cornwall. Would recommend.

If you like good beer and 70's music, this place is for you. Our room was clean but dated and we shared a bathroom (hadn't realised that when I booked, probably my fault) The doors all squeaked loudly and we were on a main road into PZ so not a peaceful night. However, the staff were nice and we weren't there very long so all good.

Brilliant location. Short walk to St Michael's Mount and short 2 mile bus ride into Penzance. Room was very clean and the breakfasts are incredible. Staff couldn't do enough and were super friendly. Had a great laugh with the locals. The best bit is the price..... Way cheaper than everywhere else so incredible value for money. Mexico Inn is across the road a nd does great food. Also the CuttySark in Marazion.

Just a little out of Penzance & Marazion. Very comfortable after a long day's travel & close proximity to the towns, across from Mexico Inn diner. A delicious hearty cooked breakfast w/great service. Very economically priced. Thanks for the hospitality.

Positives It's right off the main road, so easy to find Parking Continental and (hot) Cornish breakfast Convenient access to St Michael's Mt Negatives It's right off the main road so the noise from passing cars and people will keep you up Heating was off (mid September but it was quite cold, wet and windy) Could do with general renovation Not really close to anything else besides St Michael's Mt, the beach and the old town

Quite possibly the best value bed and breakfast I have ever stayed in. Easy to find and between Penzance and Marazion, it’s perfectly situated. The beds were comfy and the room was clean. The hot drinks and water provided was a lovely touch. Yes - the place is a little rough around some of the edges but the staff are so helpful and friendly - and above all kind. Nothing is too much trouble. Breakfast was delicious and huge! I would always look for this place when coming back to this area. I stayed with children who loved it and loved the staff.

I stayed only one night after visit to Minack Theatre , my room was comfortable , tea, coffee hot chocolate & biscuits supplied in room. Breakfast was really good & the service was good too, good choice & the waitress was very helpful & friendly.... a very comfortable overnight stay. I.was dropped off after Theatre & picked up in the morning, so parking wasn't an issue for me .
