Beaches Bed and Breakfast Guest House — Hotel in Great Britain

My parents and I stayed at this guest house after reading the few reviews on their website each one out of the 10 positive . We should have known why there was less than a dozen. || What a shock we got from the 4 pm check in to every aspect. My parents stayed in the four poster bedroom , which was extremely old fashioned and very small the bed taking over the whole room|| The shower was extremely small same as the en-suite. The towels where not white all discoloured and stiff . Theses where only changed on the 5 day out of 7nights . There was no chair to sit in the room so my parents had to sit on the bed . Not appropriate for two in their late 70/s . As there was not even a lounge area to relax in . No chair in the hallway or even a bench outside . We had to take chairs and sit on the grass area behind the beach . My attic room was better decorated . But the dressing table didn't have a chair . My bathroom smelled if urine . Both bathrooms had 1 roll of single ply toilet roll and only got a new supply when at the end if the roll. Really not except able . The toiletries had notes in the room to say if any stolen they would charge to the room.. theses where suppose to be luxury products, yet they were nit full and the showers ones wete cheap varieties. Our bed linen were not changed all week even though the weather was warm . I walk every morning and swam|| So sand was on the floor which ended up in my bed as the floors where not cleaned all week. But yet every day the switches in our rooms where switched iff || Ie TV and phone charges . I thought very petty . Tea and coffee and biscuits on arrival where not replenish all week. The photos on the website were not true . The breakfast was honestly the worst we have ever had . To say Claire's parents where in the buisness , we'll obviously not a very great one. To have less than one rasher of bacon, one cheap sausage half of tomato one hashbrown a little pot of beans chopped up stalks off the mushrooms one egg . Then we asked for brown sauce, it came in a tiny dish with less than a teaspoon. It was as if the whole breakfast was on rations..I had to ask for a glass of water daily . On the photos the orange juice was in cute bottles in reality it was not and the cheapest you could buy . I asked fir hot water and lemon which i got in a jug with a massive crack with one slice of lemon. We had to ask for extra butter for the toast . Every aspect was penny pinching . They had two rooms at the front constantly locked || One should have been a lounge to relax in. The paint in the guest house was extremely old fashioned and probably not been touched since the 90/s. We travelled 300 miles and expected a super week. How wrong where we. We where early as my mum was ill we sat in the car at the front for over 2 hrs . As the doors was locked || I am.sure they where in . But left us there till. Just before 4 pm. Even though they daid they where booked up . They where not! The sign had not changed at all it was rusted on to No . vacancies. || And to put the icing on the cake the couple removed my review on their Facebook page || I wonder how many others they have taken off too. || Marks out if 10/ 2 .... and that is only because if it being close to the...

My husband and I visited Paignton for the weekend a week ago and booked a room with Beaches B&B. The guesthouse (and our room - No. 8) has a charm all its own, very cozy too. Very clean rooms and clean, spacious ensuite bathroom with wooden flooring. It was probably the biggest bathroom we've seen so far for a B&B. It's towards the back of the property so we didn't have problems with the noise on the road. It was a comfortable two-night stay for us. One of the best things about the guesthouse is that it's just a few steps away from Preston Sands (the better part of the whole Paignton beach areas).||We appreciate that our hosts, Ged and Claire, were gracious and generous enough to accommodate a special request for breakfast (only because we told them early enough perhaps and that it was easily available). Breakfast was delicious and the locally sourced sausage, very tasty. Don't let the simplicity of the cheese omelette presentation fool you; it was one of the best cheese omelettes I've had -- buttery and well-seasoned. As a staunch advocate against food wastage, I liked the fact that the breakfast portion was just right. The dining area was nicely decorated and relaxing. We enjoyed our chat with Ged, too, about different things like history and the royal family. Overall, it was a very pleasant stay with very friendly and accommodating -- and very generous -- hosts. Thanks,...

New owners since we went last ,they are very friendly and trying hard but still have a lot to learn well in my eyes they do . Lot of 5 stars given by others on here but I can not see why we had stayed here 4times before .The place needs a make over very tatty in places . Hot water tap in room 4 at top of house only trickles out and takes about 5mins to get hot water . Beds Comfy and most places clean . You now have to order cooked breakfast the night before !! Continental well not much a few little cheeses and only oranges in fruit bowl first morning I ask for banners and they did appear with grapes the next morning a few cereals and yogurts this could look so much better with not spending much also the whole 4days we were there the bin at the side of the continental breakfast had not been empty my yogurt pits and banana skins still there plus stuff from other guest before we arrived .We asked for toast it came two slices on a plate and the owner then put one slice on each of our plates !! Why not a few slices on toast rack or just leave then on the plate or a few slice in a basket . Sorry...
