The room was dirty - including a really nasty stain on the curtain and cobwebs everywhere. We had to remove a spider from the kettle. The breakfast was inedible - except for the eggs, which the attentive waitress made sure were done exactly as we asked. The staff (mostly Eastern European) were polite and helpful, but this didn't make up... More

My wife and I first stayed Dec 2010. Our first impression was not good as the radiator in the room allocated did not appear to work; we complained and were given a courteous apology and moved to another room. This was airy and clean, if a little old-fashioned (however, not a bad thing). We did not eat dinner although other... More

I was anxious before I went there, having looked up Trip Advisor only after I had booked. I rang to book but was confronted by a woman's voice who said, in a none too friendly voice she was in a meeting and would ring back - she didn't. Eventually, I booked with Late Rooms so I guess their profit margin... More

Not good really. Bedroom had cobwebs almost everywhere. The bathroom was disgusting, paint, mess, cobwebs everywhere. Double bed looked clean however. Bar is OK, quite small. Did not bother with the 'Restaurant' - nobody was in there! Very much like a B and B and not a hotel. Staff were very pleasant however. The biggest issue I have is that... More

We lifted up the bed to be faced with a half inch of dust ,old bits of cereal and thee odd... More

Oliver’s lodge must of been awarded it AA 3* I’m guessing about 15 years ago!! Over priced and in serious need of refurbishment, the best thing about my over night experience was the departure.

We liked this place as the service was excellent however our room, although large and quiet, was not as high spec as we would normally expect for the price. However the car parking was very good, which is important for us and the food on the Indian menu was superb.

We travelled to St. Ives on motorbikes and the duty manager, realising this, and completely unprompted, offered us a change of room to a ground floor room accessed directly off the rear car park so we could "keep an eye" on our bikes ! How very thoughtful of him - especially as he then had to run around fetching extra... More

I'll begin with our arrival, we arrived at approximately 5pm to find that our room was not ready, in fact from the language and actions of the receptionist it appeared we were not expected (I had booked through the internet). The receptionist queried our booking of a family room several times before asking if we could go away and come... More
