Andy, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Double room (not huge) with ensuite shower / toilet. Towels provided. Room was 3rd floor (tight stairs) . Very clean , nice hot shower. Breakfast was delicious with masses of toast. Paid £162 via a booking site (tried to book direct but was dearer -work that out...) for a 2 night stay -that's £81 each for room and breakfast -bargin. 4minute walk to a spoons pub ! Would stay again.

Little gem

Great friendly service fantastic location
John, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

For a single traveler, requiring a budget, no frills stay, this was excellent. The location is very good, between the town and the promanade, and situated in a very nice residential area. The room was on the top floor, acessed by a steep, tight staircase, so wouldn't reccomend it for anyone with mobility problems. Typical guesthouse, the breakfast was very good and freshly cooked, which sets you up for the day. Yes, the room was basic and dated, but it had everything that you need and was clean and comfy, so was very happy and will definitely stay there again.

Friendly B&B with an old charm

Julie the host was a lovely lady and very friendly. Nice breakfast, ample street parking. Room has an old charm, but all works well for the stay. Clean toilets. Would recommend and will return if the opportunity arise.

Wonderful stay. Comfy bed and very quiet. I stayed single room with shared bathroom. No issues. Bathroom was spotless. I was not able to have breakfast due to work commitments but it smelt lovely. I would highly recommend and will stay again when in Ayr.

Great traditional B&B

I'm not normally one for reviews but this place was great, a proper old school B&B. The staff were very attentive and friendly, the bed was comfy and the breakfast was one of the best cooked breakfasts I've had.

Mark, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Friendly staff, really clean, comfy bed, great breakfast but bedroom very dated and in need of redecoration and refurb.
Jacqueline, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

We had a great stay here and the owners are very friendly and a good choice of breakfast. It is very quite location within easy walk to the city center and other amenities. We won the top floor (great views at the rear) but as seen in other comments the last bend of the stair is quite steep and a tadge awkward around the narrow steps. It is definately not a room for those that have knee or hip problems. On arrival we were advised that we should have noted any disability/ joint problems on booking and a more suitable room would have been allocated if available. Unfortunately there is no space for this comment on the booking form when made through this website.
