The Havelock Guesthouse Limited

Nice place! :)

rude smelly and uncomfortable

I stayed at this place from the 11th September to 15th September 2013 and I enjoyed my stay, but it wasn't perfect.

The moment you walk in you will notice the very odd smell in the hallway (I don't know why) but that's my only upset from the building itself. Havelock does provide many rooms that I have found to be very good value for money. I stayed in a twin room which had it's own patio and bathroom (shower and toilet), and the price was only £35 a night, £32 the second night and any days after that are charged at just £28. Great price.

Rooms were clean and are cleaned daily, however can be quite noisy as the walls are very thin.

The breakfast was decent but not perfect. Great range of cereals to choose from but their full English breakfast isn't quite a "full English". There's no hash browns or other food that you would normally expect. Sausages tasted like they were cooked in the oven and sometimes a little undercooked. The mushrooms are... boiled and not fried.

If you are looking for cheap accommodation in this location and don't mind not having a "true" full English breakfast, then choose Havelock. It's great value for money.

I found that one member of staff was quite rude (the woman), she will demand payment (which is normal), but she will look down at you and give you a sick feeling in your stomach. She can be quite helpful though if you ever need directions.

Oh, and one more thing to add...

They have WiFi (charged at £3 extra) - DO NOT PAY!

Their internet is less than 300 kbps - worse than dial-up. It is like that all day every day. Worst I've experienced. But if you want to try it (for free), the password to their wifi is: 764zkd52pkki
