We note the comments from our guests who did indeed stay for two nights and insisted that everything in the room was fine. It was only when they were about to check out that they handed a long list of complaints. We have maintained over and over again, please let us know if you are unhappy with anything as we... More

We had to stay in this b&b couple of nights, if you have to stay, then is ok. But it is not a place to enjoy your stay in Southampton. Already the surrounding on the street is full of rubbish bags and mess, the entrance shows low budget accommodation, and inside is the same. Strange smell is going through the... More

We expect reviews to give an honest account of the guests experience as well as any discussions that took place. We also expect guests to extend simple basic courtesy to our staff and respect the house rules. Contrary to what has been said,these guests did not give the manager the opportunity to explain her position and offer them an alternative... More

On arrival we was told to pay up £25 extra, when the price of £75 for a family room was agreed and after confirming the room two days before we arrived, why didn't the manager call me in advance to let me know the price change (she had my contact details). I specifically told her who was staying in the... More

I had to attend a course for two weeks and I decided to book the Mayview. It was a great decision, as I was 10-15 minutes walking distance to all the important things in Southampton. The rail station, the bus station, the museum, the city centre, the library. Everything was right there. There is a very nice lady working there... More

I stayed for 3 days and it was not welcoming. The lady did not change my towels for consecutively 3 days and I was not given the information about the check out time. I disappointed by her impoliteness and the services I paid for. Definitely not worth for the price you paid.

This guest house is very close to the city centre. I would say however the if you are travelling by food there are some rather dangerous road crossings to consider, but such is Southampton! I would say this guest house is distinctly average, not brilliant, not terrible. The room was of a fair size. I was somewhat disappointed by the... More
