Good basic accommodation in an ideal location
Self check-in was easy with clear instructions. The room was good overall. Decent bed, though something underneath clunked every time I got up from it. Condition of the room is somewhat worn, clear signs of wear and tear. Bathroom and shower OK. The room had everything I needed - and some nice extras - for a basic 1-night stay. Great value for money in a fantastic location for Brighton, and the surrounding area was quiet at night. Would happily stay here again.

Lovely property and the room we had on the 3rd floor was very big, clean and quiet. From the guest house to the pier is walkable only about a 10mins walk and plenty of shops around to grab snacks

I have stayed here a few times and have always found it to be clean and pleasant. Despite being an unmanned property I felt safe and always received check-in information timely. There was tea, coffee, hot chocolate which was refilled on the morning

Comfortable stay after night out
Well decorated, gorgeous 4 poster bed, we had everything we needed. Good location for walking to centre and cafes and pubs even closer, seafront also.

Nothing to dislike, Convenient for my stay, clean and comfortable. Keyless entry to house and bedroom was useful, no prolonged checking in, but also no interaction with local staff or owners.

Great hotel
We received emails prior to getting to the hotel which was great.
We entered the property and had sweets Ona rival which was lovely, we entered the room no problem and once inside we were pleasantly surprised with the room and bathroom. Lovely guesthouse and would definitely recommend and will be visiting again when in town - 5 stars!

Stayed at Colson House a few times this summer. It offers great value - large well presented double rooms, comfortable beds, small but clean bathrooms with decent showers. For a budget guesthouse it’s one of the better ones.
