Great location.

Great location for exploring Ely, lovely staff really helpful. Only slight downside was the room was very warm in the peak of summer!! a fan was provided. The management are really good but obviously the weather is out of their control!! In cooler months its wonderful.

Room smelt of drains, broken safe, broken window security, thin walls, and fire alarm went off at 1am. The fire alarm can go off in any hotel but most send a message to their guests or even partially comp the room. No comms from this hotel following incident.

Lovely pub rooms

Quiet, comfortable rooms. Due to the weather, the room was quite hot and hard to cool down. The thick duvet was too much for sleeping, but the pillows and bed were very comfortable. Some instructions in the room on what to do at checkout if reception is not yet open would have been helpful.

The room was clean and quiet which was good. However the toilet seat was loose and bedside lights did not work. I left notification for the High Flyer so hopefully these will be sorted out as I do understand that these things can be missed if not advised. My concern was that we were told that if we wanted breakfast they would have to get someone in specially as they would not be getting in till 10am the next morning. Whilst they said they could do this it made us feel like it would be an imposition so we went elsewhere to eat in the morning.

Very Disappointing!

Very disappointed with room as there was a terrible smell of the drains coming from the bathroom. The breakfast is a joke as it starts very late at 8.30 am. We went in at 8.30 and were the only people in. The cooked breakfast eventually arrived at 9.30am! There were no other options i.e cereal or fruit. The hot beverages were charged as extras to the breakfast! We won't be going back!
