Clean warm room. Good easy to operate shower. Lovely view. Comfortable bed. Great location. Hairdryer, ironing board and iron readily available. Good supply of tea, coffee and milk.
Didn't like the paper cups provided for tea and coffee. Would have preferred china mugs. Also a couple of glasses in the room would have been nice.

Great location and views, room was clean and comfy bed. Nice views
As it was only a room for one it was basic but useable, very tiny TV , Bare light fitting in bathroom which made bathroom dark, Shower head only dangling on rail and fluctuated between cold and scolding so not enjoyable. Very noisy at the front.

Price and location
Hard bed dripping tap very noisy toilet each time you flush.

How close it was to the national marine aquarium
The sound of the toilet flushing was a massive horn noise that shook the room, it was very unexpected and scary initially.

Lovely little budget room with a great view across the harbour. Plenty of food options within the area. Room was lovely and warm with easily controllable heating.
The numbers on the power shower need re-doing. Couldn't work out why the shower was luke warm until I twigged that the higher numbers were unreadable. However - once discovered - shower was nice and hot.

Good honest pub accommodation in a great part of Plymouth, with easy access to the city centre and tourist attractions. I loved the history of the Admiral McBride and the Barbican (old harbour) area as a whole. My room had everything I needed and it even came with harbour view I wasn't expecting (plus separate residents' entry). Friendly staff completed a happy stay.

The best shower yet - uncomplicated with one button to push!
Difficult to climb and descend the stairs. A second banister rail on the stairs for safety as we are all getting older!

The bed was okay and the location was central
The bathroom had an unpleasant odour. Very noisy at night and someone tried to break into our room during the night.
7.0 / 10.0
It was centrally located, easy to reach from the nearby car parks, the room was larger and more spacious than expected.
The noise. Although the noise from the pub itself was inaudible, the speaker on the outside wall piping music to the empty outdoor seating area was right under my window and kept me awake. Given it was cold, wet, and the area was empty, outside music seemed unnecessary.
9.0 / 10.0
Easy check, enjoyable view of the harbor and the people strolling around, each checkout, a bar on the ground floor, close to all the action.
The motorcycles going by can be quite loud in the evenings, but there isn't much of that overnight.

Good location.
Small room. Very noisy road outside and it didn’t help that the windows did not shut properly.
Water pressure was terrible so the shower was poor.
Windows being cleaned at 8’pclock in the morning.

Right in the heart of Plymouth Barbican Plenty of bars and eating places Room had nice view of the harbour The car park was as described but had gone up th£13 per day or £55 per week not the pubs fault

The room felt like a cosy, old-fashioned English bedroom come sitting room. We could see the famous Mayflower steps from our window along with great views of the marina. It was perfectly located for shops, restaurants and walks, plus we were able to park conveniently in a car park a mere 5 minute walk away. It cost about £13 for 24 hours, not cheap but we had peace of mind knowing it was just across the road.
Everything was fine.

The location and view is excellent as are the staff, whoever cleans the room is amazing, they do above and beyond
The ensuite is very close to the side of the bed so a little tricky and the bed was I think a standard double so a little small, but measurements were in the details so I'm not really complaining, one thing that needs sorting is the dressing table stool! The legs need tightening
