Larger rooms likely to be very comfortable but suited us staying near to son.

Non resident Manager was very concerned that we should register online and gain access on Boxing Day. Was helpful when I spoke to him. (You need mobile phone and internet to use this guesthouse.) Very clean. Comfortable bed.

Small double room was well appointed for self-catering but cramped. Only one chair. (add a folding one?) We also struggled to find the property in the dark. Amherst label was very modest. Be sure you have a street map.

Great stay and nice atmosphere

Everything I needed was there, clean, and location was fine for me.

It was a little noisey at night until midnight, so wore earplugs which they provided

Poor

Complimentary biscuits, crisps, hot chocolate were a really nice surprise on top of the advertised tea and coffee. Also really liked having a microwave in the room.

Room was cold. Owner was creepy (e.g. demonstrating how to lock the bedroom door when it was just him and me in the room). Also got off to a bad start when the first thing he told me about the room was a repair that needed to be done to the room (setting me up to feel like I was going to have loads of issues) then asking if his mate could come and fix it the next day while I was still there (I was only staying 2 days so for the sake of 24 hours I wouldn't have had two strangers in my room potentially rifling through all my things). Nothing bad happened but I did barricade my door because I just got a bad vibe

Great stay.

Friendly welcome. The bedroom and bathroom were great. A fridge, microwave, crisps and biscuits were a welcome bonus. Check in and out was simple. I will happily stay again. Thanks.

The road might be a bit noisy if you stayed in summer and needed to sleep with the windows open. I stayed in October so this wasn't a problem for me. However, the owners supplied ear plugs in case you needed them. Very thoughtful.

A convenient, clean and comfy place to stay on a visit to the office

I travel regularly to Reading for work and can't believe I've never come across this place before! I knew I was going to be late checking in but this was all facilitated and the room & particularly the shower was great. Will stay again.

Nothing really
