Review summary

Based on recent reviews

The Ebberley Arms places you right in central Barnstaple, steps away from the Pannier Market and convenient for the bus station and theatre. Guests appreciate the modern, well-equipped rooms, sometimes converted lofts, and many find the £5 English breakfast a great value. Some guests have mentioned the lack of a mirror or dressing area in the room as a minor inconvenience. Overall, it's considered a bargain, especially given the location.

lovely hosts ideal location modern room

the hosts were so lovely, i felt very welcomed. the location is ideal, right by the town centre and theatre. the room was clean and modern. i also appreciated the complementary tea and coffee provided in the room, such a nice touch!

i noticed the room could use a mirror or designated dressing area. it would be helpful for getting ready. this minor addition would enhance the overall experience.

mixed feelings about this place

loud pub slow breakfast

The noise from the pub downstairs was quite loud late into the night. i struggled to get to sleep before it quieted down. also, the breakfast service was slow. I waited nearly 40 minutes for a simple order of toast (i saw other guests were also annoyed).

convenient and friendly stay

friendly staff decent room clean bathroom

i found the staff very friendly and nice. the room size was decent. the bathroom felt new and was clean. there was an area outside the room that included a microwave, plates, cutlery, and a coffee machine. this was useful if i did not want to eat out.

the room i stayed in lacked a mirror, so there was no dressing area. there was also no blind on the skylight window. this let in a lot of light in the mornings.
