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.

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

Convenient but basic

Convinient lodging for visiting Verdant Brewery. The rooms were as expected, no thrills but nothing wrong. Should be noted that there is little commercial activity nearby, especially at night, so bring food or travel a bit.

Really good value. Great transport options. Staff were friendly and efficient. Room was clean, shower was very good. Basic kitchen available to use . Campus is confusing to navigate with 1 way system . Rooms were too hot , really don't need winter duvets on the bed .

Very enjoyable stay Thank you

Stayed as part of daughters graduation. Was handy being onsite. Book in staff were very friendly and helpful. Rooms very clean and well stocked, as were communal kitchens. My only advice would be to have bars/cafes and food halls open longer during graduation to save people having to travel out, which would also bring revenue into Uni. The staff were very accommodating when having to book an extra days stay for my daughter due to unforeseen circumstances.

I understand it is student accommodation, however the mattress could do with an upgrade. Other than that, accommodation was fine.

What i can say, is that it suited our purpose of being where we needed to be for our daughters masters graduation. The rooms were clean but very basic. Very difficult to get to sleep with some very inconsiderate people dancing and partying at 1am.

Had a bit of an issue to start as had booked 3 rooms through Expedia but the University system only showed one. They sorted it ok. Some of the printed instructions, e.g., for parking, names of roads, didn't match reality and could do with updating. Perfect for a short stay.

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 :-)

This is student accommodation, so the bed was ok, and the kitchen was clean with enough equipment to make something to eat. I wish that the doors had dampness. I did not appreciate someone who got up at 6:00 to make a cup of tea, letting the three doors they passed through bang. I was there as a student and not a tourist at the time.

Cheap, but possibly spend a bit more for comfort

Good location. Lovely landscaping at the University. However, quite possibly the most uncomfortable bed I’ve ever had the pleasure of paying for. Springs were sticking up in the mattress. We turned the mattress over in desperation and it was much better. Bathroom has an automatic light and fan that stays on for well over 10 minutes which was kind of annoying in the middle of the night.

Difficult to find our accommodation when we arrived even having a map of the site from reception. Wi-fi was intermittent and made several journeys to reception to try to sort the problem. Staff were pleasant but ineffectual. Asked for extra pillows...they never came. Car parking was on site but quite a distance from our unit. Would not use again...too uncomfortable.

No frills, good value for money ... poor bed

No frills room in student accommodation. Good size for two people with a double bed. Check in and check out was efficient and friendly and we were grateful that there was still someone there when we arrived later than planned due to traffic outside Bristol. Very clean room and bathroom. When we stripped the bed before checkout the duvet was very stained. I couldn't get the WiFi to work (but that may be my fault). The onsite cafe was really good and a short walk from the room. Reasonably priced with good options for breakfast and lunch and delightful, friendly staff. Good on site shop too. Parking is free and a 5 minute walk away. The main problem for us was the bed. The mattress is thin and we found it uncomfortable; we didn't sleep very well.

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.
