Sandown Guest House

Location is great! 5/10mins away from main hub. Staff is super friendly and accommodating. If you’re also looking for a quiet place this is great! Garden is beautiful and peaceful to sit and read.

The pictures of the room didn’t match the pictures on the site so it was a bit of a let down. The pool was not cleaned so no swimming - but guessing that’s because it’s winter. Also if you have a lot of luggage be mindful some rooms are 2 flights of stairs up.

The staff were amazing , the place is beautiful. The garden is so tranquil and calm

Nothing everything was amazing

Staff were amazing

Staff was friendly and the location was perfect for me.

It was just little things where it fell short. The TV wasn't working, I told the staff member, and she told me to restart it. I said I had, and she just reiterated that I need to restart it, then went to bed. I didn't want to bug her, because it was already just after 21h00, I think. The coffee wasn't full, so I used the last of it on the first morning, and it wasn't refilled. Luckily, I had a feeling that would be the case, and I bought my own coffee for my last morning there. No shower cap, no hairdryer. Also, I didn't realise I had to arrange with staff to leave early on my last day. I felt really bad that they then had to wake up to let me out, as someone has to physically open and close the gate, and there is no security box or anything, so you can let yourself out and leave the keys. I don't really understand how it has such a good rating. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely fell short of expectations based on the good reviews.
