I was given Room 18; avoid this room if you can. Right next to the communal kitchen area. I was woken several times either by late-nighters heating up their take-aways or early-risers. Room was 'bijou. Pity because host David had been kind and efficient on the phone earlier.

Very bad services. You have no one to turn to when some guests misbehave almost the entire night. You don't know whether to call the police or the facility manager. Noise and uproar, no sleep. A bed with a bad mattress. if you leave the facility before time, the money is not returned.

Angry
Can't say too much as when we arrived we were locked out.we were delayed in Cheltenham and when we turned up it was to a note on the door informing us that there was no night staff. I texted a helpline who did manage to find us another hotel but as they insisted on photo id whic i dont have , we decided to drive home arriving very tired and angry. Doubtful if a refund is on the cards either so will stick to Premier Inn in future

Adequate
Booked 2 on suite rooms for a work night. Found the place ok but we had to park a bit further away because we had a large box van . Text information from owner was very easy to understand and we got in the rooms quickly . Rooms were quite clean if a little run down , very adequate for our needs . Shower was hot and powerfull and towels were soft . Only real downside was a couple in the enclosed patio drinking and smoking untill really late and they were very noisey . Breakfast was not included but facilities to prepare a breakfast are there and clean . We read a few reviews that said breakfast ingriedients are supplied you just need to make it , this is not the case . All in all good as a bolt hole and a great price for the area .

Left following my entrance
The building is run down and ehen i arrived i was greeted by folk who were staying there due to their own poverty issues. I do not have a problem with it persay although its not an environment i would choose to stay whilst i am on holiday. Needless to say, i didnt stay and found alternative accommodation. The staff were really good at receiving the feedback and were incredibly appologic. They are clearly working hard to make Admiral accessible to everyone although its here that lies tje problem.

Okay but won’t be returning for a while
Messages via text were prompt and professional. Checking in was straight forward despite being contact free. Lights in the shower room weren’t working so notified owner . He said he’d check and change the following day but tuned out they were specialist bulb so had to cope with a shaving light ! I didn’t find things particularly clean. Bits on the carpet as we walked in and the valance sheet was dirt on one bed … The whole place needs a bit more TLC but has plenty of potential… milk for tea and coffee wasn’t always replaced daily and one day I put the please clean room sign up but nothing got done. It was however very relaxed and did have a homely feel. We we’re able to cook a meal in the kitchen and only needed to buy the ingredients.

Clean and good value for money
Large guest house/hotel close to the middle of Bridgewater. Good location as close to Sainsburys, Costa, McDs, etc. There is also an excellent Mediterranean restaurant, Green Olive, within a short walk. The guest house was clean and the check in was quick and efficient. Small room with ensuite shower but all perfectly adequate - at the price I was not expecting the Ritz but better than expected. Clean and comfortable. There is a shared kitchen with cereals, eggs, tea, coffee, etc., so you can make your own breakfast and was told I was welcome to cook any meals i wanted. I did n't, but if I had been staying longer it would have been a welcome option. Website says free parking available, there is but it is on road parking and the first evening it took a while to find a spot. Parked in Sainsbury's initially (only 2.5 hours allowed) but found a spot close by later in the evening. Could be an issue at busier times of the year! Free wifi but could not get internet access - logged on to the wifi easily but could not get onto the net, could have been me being thick but I do not usually have any problem, so used my phone to check e-mails. Only 2 nights I can live with that but for a longer stay it would have been an issue!

Comfortable enough for one or two nights, en-suite shower room, staff very friendly and secure parking available (extra cost) if you want it. Breakfast is self serve (nothing is prepared for you), but you can help yourself in the kitchen at any time for tea/coffee etc. (No kettles in rooms). Overall: good value for money, but not suitable for a longer stay if you want creature comforts. Would stay again

Surprise party
The Admiral Blake is exactly what it says on the tin. Although there was an unexpected twist; as all guests have to make there own breakfast from the plenty in the kitchen, a social event recurs on each visit. This made the stay even more enjoyable.
