The absolute disaster of expedia web site which resulted me being sold an order which was one month later than I requested. Then when it came to use these mid-booking the cancellation proved impossible because your website gives no ability to speak to a human being for a situation was not dealable by the website. As I result I will never you your company again and will warn my colleagues and friends of your deficiencies

The accommodation in the annex was a little way away from town, but walkable. We arrived a bit early, trying to avoid the rain on bicycles - but staff were understanding and prioritised getting our room ready. Felt uncomfortable arriving by bike, as no options for storing the bikes were provided, and perhaps this might be considered as the location is on the Rebellion Way, which many touring cyclists are doing.

If you're looking for a charming getaway, Arch House in Wells-next-the-Sea, Norfolk, is an excellent choice. This delightful spot is not only dog-friendly, but it also features a beautiful garden where you and your furry friend can unwind and enjoy the surroundings. The rooms are impeccably clean and thoughtfully set up- this included two dog beds, dog bowls, dog towels and dog treats which were greatly appreciated. To top it off, the food is fantastic, along with a warm, welcoming atmosphere- we will be staying again thank you.

We stayed in Arch House which was a five to ten minute walk from the hotel and more like a rather run down hostel than a hotel. Given the cost of the accommodation we would have expected better.

We were allocated a room in the annex Arch house, being fully aware that it a very old building we found the room rather small and stuffy, needs some maintenance, window very dirty and too much light visible at night from LED lights, I’ll fitting door and window blind and glass window in ensuit door. Carpets not very clean in all areas.

Poor quality at Arch House
Room was is a tired annex 500m from the Globe. This was not at all clear when making the booking. Dog hair all over the carpets and everywhere smelled musty. Room had water ingress all over ceiling, probably need a new roof. Lots of damage/poor decoration in both bedroom and bathroom. Certainly not the expected quality for what we paid. Will not return and can not recommend staying here. Also on arriving we found out we needed to make a booking for breakfast, in doing so we found we could only be seated at 08:15 or after 09:30 which were not great choices. Why did they not offer a booking when they called a week before to confirm booking.

We had expected a higher standard of accommodation for the price. We were in a room in the Arches part of the accommodation, which is a 5 minute walk from The Globe and from where breakfast was served. The room was small, although the bathroom was a good size. First impressions is that the place is grubby e.g. both entrance doors are shabby and the steep stairs to the first floor rooms are dirty, as are the walls. The room carpet was also dirty. Also the backdoor with a keypad was never locked. However, it was very quiet and parking was good. Didn‘t like dogs shaking themselves when we were having breakfast. They shouldn’t be allowed in dining areas.

On outskirts of Wells with good parking but no on-site facilities. One nights stay was very expensive for what was offered but desperate measures etc. Bed , very "worn" mattress and room was small. Breakfast in main hotel good and nice walk if not raining!

Very pleasant and convenient for Wells centre
Very comfy stay in a twin room (#35) in Arch House. Lovely bedding and towels etc, nice toiletries. Clear and plentiful check in instructions and so easy checking in with lock box. Only downside was shower was a bit weak and bathroom light didn’t work, looked like it was in process of being fixed as cover was off.
