"A smart, modern B&B near the city centre... Rooms are a tad boxy, but pleasantly finished with flock wallpaper, John Lewis bed linen and Hansgröhe power showers." Full review
Independent "You could sleep in a classic, smartly decorated bedroom – but why would you do that, when you can sleep in an airstream on the roof? Plumb in the middle of Bristol, you’ll find that this cute and good-value guesthouse is an ideal base for exploring the city centre"
The Guardian "Bedrooms are more traditional, with tongue-and-groove panelling, pale-wood bedsteads and colourful throws. Bathrooms are compact...breakfast includes dishes such as homemade fruit compote"
