The place was very convenient for the train station and also close to the venue my sister was getting married. The price was excellent…. I actually think they should charge more especially after hearing what other guests at the wedding had paid for other places. It was immaculate and felt very cozy and was nice and quiet. Excellent comms from the owner and staff regarding check in. The fact it was a family run place instead of a big name place made it even better and it was clear the owners take great pride in what they offer…. Absolutely faultless and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend and would happily stay there again. Unfortunately they don’t really have an up to date FB page or many reviews which I seriously don’t understand…. Maybe they are busy enough without it but they should be very proud of what they have and shouting it from the rooftops…. It’s too easy for people to find fault these days and jump on the keyboard, but credit where it’s due. So thank you Maindee Guest house, and also your staff…. Very happy customer and I have no problem giving a big fat 10 out of 10 👌

Nothing

Right next to the train station 🚉 😀 the host Was kind and put WiFi direct on the phone for me ..showed me my room even offered to Carry my bag 🎒 up ..the place was spotless my room was spotlessly clean with tea and coffee facilities. The shared bathrooms were incredibly clean ..can not fault this place and will be staying again..only down side was no breakfast..but you can go to the Duke of Edinburgh just a few mins walk away for that and opposite there is a Tesco if you need anything ...its the perfect place ✨️

Cleanliness

The owners were lovely and friendly and really accommodating- they were helpful when I had noisy neighbours and even put my drivers license under the door when I dropped it on the way out one evening. The rooms were so clean and comfortable and the shared areas were spotless. I even got to meet the puppies who were there for the day!

The only problem was there were kids in the room next to mine who were playing games and watching TV really loudly til the early hours. The next day Ian the owner gave me his number in case they did it again. Great service.

The owner was very helpful and accommodating. We were given a room next to the shared bathroom but no one was using it during our stay. We had a very good kip since we needed a room for a night due to the family emergency. This place met our needs very well.

Nothing really.

Great location and a great base for stay. Owners are lovely and felt safe. Clean rooms had everything I needed was no frills but had tv and drinks tray. Bed comfy too.

No breakfast however easily accessible close by. Dated decor but have started on this.

Quirky old style end terraced house with small rooms although could hear other occupants on mobile phones. Other than that, it was clean and did what it was intended for; clean, decent sleep, good interactions with owner who maid us feel welcome.

Small rooms but, being what it is you just get on with the experience.

The location suited our purpose, being within walking distance to the town centre but quiet at night too Ian couldn't do enough and was a welcoming host. He even cleared his yard, so we had off-street parking for our bikes

Booked a twin room by mistake

Nicely decorated. Very clean. Great to have a table and chair as well as a washbasin in the room. Friendly and helpful owners. Fridge and microwave on the landing for guests use. On street parking wasn't difficult to find relatively close. Liked that breakfast was an optional extra as I don't eat breakfast.

The walls were thin and I could hear my neighbour's phone call very clearly, but nobody stayed up late so I wasn't disturbed. Other reviews have mentioned the lack of individual bathmats so I took my own as I care about that. I do prefer not sharing a bathroom (which if course I knew about before booking) but that would be the only reason for not staying there again.

The b&b was a pleasant walk to town, had a park opposite which was nice to walk round on a good day.

There was nothing I didn't like.

Owner and family were super friendly and very helpful. Ian supplied me with chilled, filtered water and didn't freak out when I lost my room key! Very clean room, lovely house, 2 minutes walk from train station, 10 minute walk into town, next to a park, shops and bus stop. Couldn't ask for more.
