Fox House Studios, Aparthotel

Excellent location to get around Plymouth - short walk to the Hoe and the barbican. The friendly staff will allow you to leave your luggage there for pick up later after check out. Check in wasn’t smooth though - no one at reception and had to call many times before someone finally picked up to help me with check in, which also took a while. Room was spacious enough with a little kitchenette. Short taxi ride away from Plymouth station. Just 5 minutes away from Theatre Royal - very safe and short walk away after the musical ended late at night.

Rooms are nice, very clean but nothing special. Great price. Beds are comfortable.

Great location, big window studio flat with sufficient kitchen utensil for cooking, nice bed and pillow, clean and tidy bathroom, enough hot water. A little bit noisy if window is opened (roundabout in front of the window), and sea gulls are noisy at early dawn, but ear plugs and also eye mask are provided. I will recommend friends and come back again next time!

Great central location, the town centre outside the entrance and the Barbican a few minutes away via the nearby lanes. The studio is clean, minimalist, compact but not claustrophobic, although would probably be more appropriate for a young couple or busy visitor. Innovative use of limited space, but fitted with cooker, microwave and fridge if you want to live independently (although there is a vast array of restaurants, cafés, bars and takeaways on your doorstep). The reception is manned until 10pm. Late arrivals contact the duty manager who will advise them of the key safe combination at the entrance. My reservation was via a booking agent, but the duty manager maintained I was required to pay a security deposit, which was not included in the booking confirmation; if it was on the website (as he insisted) it was not prominently advertised. I challenged this, so I would advise guests to double check the check-in process prior to arrival. Despite this setback, my short stay here was pleasant. The location is a significant bonus, and the quirky nature of the decor and included amenities made an encouraging change to the larger chain hotels close by. Would gladly return again for a non-business stay.

Was okay Struggle to sleep as neighbouring doors slammed very loudly to shut (despite neighbours trying to be quiet). Bathroom smelt of mould Walls of the apartment were damaged and marked Pay £10 to check in early by an hour despite room being ready. Some of the furniture inside the apartment was broken (the legs of the chairs and the sofa) Very weak water pressure for the shower Location is good however very loud struggled to sleep with noisy cars and motorbikes Hallway smelt of poor drainage and cat food The lift could do with some maintenance I advise using the stairs

Not a comfortable stay The room and building in general was very run down and dirty, the fixtures and fittings were all broken, stained and badly decorated. The top bunk even had stains all over the actual bed sheet. The walls were dirty and scraped up, the beading(?) around the floor boards was broken, bathroom tap was backwards, the bathroom door handle didn't work, the shelves and sink in the bathroom were all tilted forward so unusable as everything slid off. The shower was hot to start with but went cold fast. The good part is that the cooker was really useful to have but the fridge being next to the bed just made a loud noise all night that stopped us from sleeping. Also I sorted my hotels on the app via ones with parking only. This hotel DOES NOT have parking.
