Keynes College - University Of Kent

Fantastic little find. Friendly, quiet, clean. Cheaper than most hotels. Breakfast included was an extra surprise and bonus. If I’m in the area over night again I’m certainly checking here for availability

La camera è abbastanza spaziosa e luminosa; c'è la telavisione ma manca una lampada per leggere la sera. Il secondo giorno non sono state fatte le pulizie; nei giorni seguenti tutto regolare. Il bagno: scarichi funzionanti ma doccia poco pratica (senza piatto doccia - pavimentazione antiscivolo digradante verso uno scolo-, soffione fisso e tenda di plastica). Colazione abbondante, sia salata (salsiccia, uova, pancetta etc...) che dolce (grande varietà di cereali, pane tostasto etc...)

Poor standard of amenities- tiny shower, and everything got soaked during shower, toilet was stained and old. Walls falling apart and gaps in grouting and moulding. No ventilation in bathroom and poor ventilation in the room. Windows need opening but located on ground floor so could not open at night. No bedside lamp and room was dark. Bed was great but a little damp. Slept very well as it was quiet and comfortable

I just stayed for one night good value for money very friendly

As expected, no thrills but clean and comfortable. Would avoid in hot weather though as the rooms are well insulated.

Veey good basic accommodation. Very comfortable bed and en suite bathroom. The college isn't in the centre of Canturbury; it's a good mile to walk to the centre and it's up a hill on the way back. However there's a regular bus service to/from town.

Basic, but perfectly adequate. Would book again.

The mattress was so bad, we had to move out and book a premier inn for the second two days.

Worst bed I’ve ever slept on. Mattress is completely worn out. The pillows and duvet smell of damp. There in mold on the shower room. The walls are paper thin and you can hear through them.

Awful check in experience. I queued up behind a couple whose electronic key fob to open their room wasn't working. They were given a card to get in instead. The receptionist gave me an electronic key fob to get into my room. I went to my room to discover it didn't work, so went back to reception. She then gave me an electronic card instead. I went to my room only to discover that that didn't work either, so went back to reception. One of the other people on reception said they would come with me to try and diagnose the problem. It wasn't clear what needed diagnosing - I think they may simply have thought I was too dopey to use the key fob and card - but I agreed. We went back to my room where they discovered that the key fob I'd told them didn't work, didn't work, and that the key card I'd told them didn't work, didn't work. So we wandered back to reception. Now I was given a key fob for a different room. Hurrah, it worked! But it was located in a flat full of Dutch school children on some kind of learning holiday. I'd no sooner got in my room than one of their carers knocked on the door and was quite insistent that I had to leave - understandably they were quite concerned about unknown adults around small children. So I wandered back to reception. At fifth time of asking, I finally got a working key to a room I could stay in. There are positives: the campus is nice, the breakfast is good. There's a bus stop very close by to get into town. But very uncomfortable bed.

Very nice place confortable and nice staff strong recommend 5 stars.

Great value

Lovely location in the scenic grounds of Canterbury University. Room was similar in size, facilities, and comfort to a Travelodge, but with breakfast, wifi and room cleaning included, much better value. Great breakfast. A great location for a weekend trip to Canterbury.

Great location, few minutes drive from centre. Free parking and very nice breakfast. Rooms clean but bed was very uncomfortable.

Cheapest accommodation in the area. Good price for own bathroom and breakfast included. The room was clean, but the the room and whole building had an unpleasant smell, and windows only open about 10cm, so couldn’t really air it out. Also the amenities weren’t the best with no soap or shower gel, which I didn’t bring and was hoping to be included. Not a major problem but would have been nice to know beforehand. I stayed for 2 nights, and housekeeping came to clean my room on the second day.

Standard university accommodation as expected, room was clean and it was nice to have access to a kitchen for microwave/ oven (note there is no kitchen equipment/ crockery etc). Reception staff were very helpful in finding our room. Breakfast was nice, good continental and cooked options.

Reasonable price for a stay in very pleasant surroundings.

Easy to find helpful staff great breakfast very good Wi-Fi and TV

Shocking service. I arrived at 8.15 after trying to work out exactly where on earth I was supposed to go. At 8pm the reception apparently closes according to a chap I asked in the car park. After finally getting to reception (another person also waiting) we were directed to phone security to get the room key. 15 minutes later we had a key and directions to our block. Another 20 minutes later we still couldn’t find our block (at night the campus is extremely dark). Why the security guy could not have just shown us I’m not sure. So I then went to the bar and paid £10 to any student that could get me to my room. Unfortunately they were ‘freshers’ so it took another 15 minutes for them to assist. Room was fine. Service terrible.

Très bonne adresse 😊 Le seul point négatif, c'est que c'est assez loin du centre ( une vingtaine de minutes à pied) mais bon il y a aussi des bus qui vous y conduisent. Propre et pratique avec un p'tit déjeuner très complet compris dans le prix. Servi dès 7h45.
