Donnington Guest House

Clean room

Incredible value for money. Clean, comfortable and friendly check-in.

The staff member was pleasant but the room was grim and the bathroom worse. I didn't want to use the towels as they looked grey, frayed and so old. I don't think it's fair to continue to portray this place as a guesthouse when it's more of a place that would be a hostel or a tradies stop off. It either needs complete renovation or more accurate portrayal in advertising. It's not somewhere to use as a holiday guesthouse. A few positives are that there's good parking, a Lidl over the road and it's about 15 minutes walk into town (more on the way back as it's uphill). I wouldn't stay again and would have decided not to stay after seeing the bathroom if I hadn't been so tired.

Clean and comfortable room. The toilet for my room was down the corridor (shower was in the room) which I initially thought is a bit inconvenient, but it was for my use only and I never bumped into anyone in the corridor.

Very friendly staff, quiet at night, lovely room with a view of the whole town

Good value room in a good location

Lovey room nice view from the window shower could have been a little more powerful

Parking was great. Check in straight forward. Room was a good size and quiet away from a busy road. Not luxurious but fine for an overnight stay. Price good for the location.

Good position for station as required. Otherwise would have stayed elsewhere with bigger ensuite which was a tad challenged for space

Very friendly reception.

Good access very well placed opposite Lidl county arms within walking distance bed bit soft room very clean

Nice view cathedral, clean and comfortable. Good shower, car parking on site.

A fine, old-fashioned English guest house. Be aware that it is NOT a bed and breakfast establishment any longer.

All good except for the show has really low pressure. The electric heated shower device looks out-dated. It makes the shower very very long.

Very friendly check in. Informative and pleasant. Room smelt damp, odorus actually. Wallpaper looking like it's about to fall off. However, it wasn't the bedding, the bathroom or the fridge. It wasn't unbearable and knowing it was just a night I didn't say anything. Window wouldn't open, which might be the reason for the damp, but in the end it was not an issue because the room was quite cool despite it being over 25°C during the day. Again, I didn't ask, but it could have been unlocked (or needs repair). Best night sleep I'd had that week, however. Shower was an older unit but whoever used it before has set it to maximum (you can't use it like that, that's how those things cycle, it's a safeguard!) Didn't have breakfast. About 20-30 minutes walk to the centre each way, but there are buses nearby and the train is very convenient. Parking looked more than enough for the number of rooms. Two supermarkets within 5 minute walk, a pub within 10. My overall impression is that (between my experience and the reviews) the owners / staff are trying. However, it looks they're in a period of 'upgrade'. I would think about trying this place again in a few years (reviews pending) but not within the near future.

Nothing fancy but perfectly comfortable for the price. If you want somewhere basic to rest your head, this will meet your needs.

Venlig modtagelse. Værelse nr 1 var stort og veludstyret med køleskab og mikrobølgeovn. Ingen vejstøj. Karnap med udsigt over Truro

My friend had a amazing stay very polite staff

Perfect for what our family of 4 needed (Two adults, 3 year old & 4 month old). Very friendly welcome, our room was the perfect size, beds were comfy and the fridge in the room meant we could pre make formula bottles instead of making them in the middle of the night. Only a 4 minute drive from where we wanted to be in the centre of Truro. Highly recommend and would stay again if we ever needed to be back in the area.

The room was quiet and comfortable. Check in was easy.
