Small guest house rooms, reasonably priced

7.0

Stayed close to the Harbour and beach. Good value. Easy access into Irvine, pubs and restaurant nearby. Nicely presented and commication good. Kettle in room, so take own breakfast.

Shower room quite small. Ok for short stay as rooms aren't that big for 2 people. Need to bring your shower gel.

If you want to be awake all night- this place is for you.

4.0

The room decor, comfy bed and shower pressure.

1. ROOM 1.No sleep what so ever. Constant unexplained noise above my bed the whole night. I expected a certain amount of noise as it is an old building with single glazing on window. Even hearing guests above, snoring walking about and phone beeping could be explained. I wasnt expecting the unexplained noise akin to a cupboard or wardrobe door being shut and vibrating. I recorded the noise, the owner came over when I messaged him in the morning, whilst still in the room. The noise had stopped, I admit that. However, I had proof on my phone. He listened, but did not show any interest. Instead asked me what I thought the noise was. He couldn't get away fast enough, saying numerous times that he was busy. Obviously a guest who had, had not rest ; but had already paid, was NO longer a concern. I raised a complaint on Booking.com and he refused to make any recompense. There was a security issue also. The security door , which should be closed at 10pm , according to signage was left opened all night. People in the courtyard until 4am. I was unaware of this until my friend told me when we were leaving. They were in room 4, also on the ground floor. They had a sleepless night also; for different reasons. There is no staff on the premises at night, and as our experience the security of residents didn't feel like a priority We had spent an idealic day in Irvine, only for the night time events to taint our memory. Ironically, the rooms are beautiful and I was thinking of booking a further three days, come December. This was before the events of the evening. I have left an honest account of our time and cannot in good conscience recommended this place. I would not stay here again. Not only because of the actual experience; but the indifference of the host.

THE HARBOUR GUEST HOUSE IRVINE. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!

10.0

THE HARBOUR GUEST HOUSE WAS PERFECT FOR OUR STAY.. 2 ROOMS 3 PEOPLE. BEDS WERE VERY COMFORTABLE, ENSUITE FACILITIES SPOTLESS AND LOCATION CLOSE TO THE NICHE RESTAURANT WHERE WE ENJOYED A DELICIOUS DINNER AND GREAT BREAKFAST BEFORE WE DEPARTED FOR THE ARDROSSAN FERRY TO ARRAN. ALL THE LOCALS WE MET MADE US FEEL VERY WELCOME .. SO FRIENDLY AND HELPFUL. A LOVELY EVENING STROLL ALONG THE HARBOUR TO THE END MADE THE LOCATION EVEN BETTER. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.. THANK YOU.
