Wonderful for first time in Cornwall

It was such a lovely little place to find in Truro and was greeted by a very kind lady who walked me to my room, asked me how my journey was and explained everything I needed. It was as simple as needing to remember to take a set of keys with me when I left. The bedroom was immaculate with fresh linen, two bedside tables with lamps, chairs with a little table and a decent tv! The bed was so comfortable to sleep on and I slept better than I thought! There was little chocolates and fresh towels whenever I came back after a long day. The only few downsides were that the shower spray strength was a bit weak and the hotel is at the top of the hill but for my first time in Cornwall, it was absolutely brilliant to see the town (including the amazing cathedral) from my bedroom window!

Adequate for an over night trip

Accommodation was adequate for our needs but quite dated and not very sound proof as we could hear tv/talking from another room and floors were very creaky. Also saw a leaflet for breakfast only to then find in the morning that it was room only and the property does not so breakfasts!

It’s a guest house not a hotel. Check in was quick and friendly. Basic room and had a shower. Toilet down the hall which is not a problem. Nothing much in the area other than a Tescos (Sunday. Closed at 4pm!) walk into town is doable. At this price point for a one night stay as a solo traveller, this property was just fine.

Little gem..

After my original hotel had no record of my booking. I had to make a last-minute choice and booked the Donnington guest house. Having had the trip from hell to arrive and be greeted by the Manageress Tracey was a blessing. Big smile, and helpful beyond belief. She took my dress that was needed the next day, and dried and ironed it for me, even though she was about to finish for the day. Great location, just across from the new Lidl in Truro.

Rob

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
When we arrived we were abruptly greeted. I assumed it was some miscommunication, but whilst being checked in another guest arrived. She was dealt with even more poorly. I'd go as far as saying the member of staff was ignorant. If this was my place I'd have been embarrassed. The second day we met another member of staff, who was extremely pleasant. Completely chalk and cheese. The place is tired. Our room had no hot water, and the radiator didn't work. The shower was hit and miss. The TV had appalling reception and all channels kept dropping out, making it unusable even as background. The beds were not the most comfortable and they had no top sheet, just a small quilt. The bathroom could have done with some shelves. It had plenty of parking, and was conveniently located.

all good with one small issue

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.

An ambivolent experience.

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.
