"Smell of damp"

My sister and I booked two rooms as we travelled to Devon for a family funeral. My room was fine but my sisters room stunk of damp, the corridor she was on also smelt strongly of damp and there was a bucket catching droplets of water in the corridor, my sister did tell the staff about this and the staff were very nice and apologetic, however this premier inn falls far short of any premier inn I have stayed in before, we certainly would not return again, which is a real shame as I have never given a poor review before.

"Good position"

Stayed in lots of Premier Inns and the room was perfectly clean and quiet. The only reason I didnt rate it a 5 star is because the outside of the building looks dated (like a care facility)and not up to the usual standards of PI. Apart from that it was great for the price and handy for Exeter, and the staff were really friendly.

"Travel Lodge"

Staff fantastic can not complain about them. Stopped here for one night for work. Ive stayed in dozens of hotels and to be honest it did do the job. If I have one niggle (and this isn't a issue with Travel Lodge as I have also stayed in dozens on them) but Ive always felt that the Premier Inn was that next step up from a TL. This hotel just felt like a Travel Lodge. Sorry. Id still come back for a night though.

"Not up to usual standards"

This is without doubt the most disappointing Premier Inn we have stayed in. The appearance of the building is more like a care assisted facility than a hotel. We had to wait a while before we could checkin. The room smelt musty/damp, it was a very small room next to the main road and was therefore a times noisy. One member of staff was walking through the hotel guest corridors without a mask on. The wifi constantly dropped out and was very slow

"In Exeter for a funeral"

Premier Inns are not what they used to be. Towels now as thin as in the opposition. No hand rails in the shower and no mat for floor. Baths replaced by showers with high steps and mediocre non-slip floors. real shame as this used to be one of our favourite stop-overs.

Hotel description Whether you're in need of a rest before travelling on or have time to stay awhile, you'll find a warm welcome at Premier Inn Hotel Exeter Countess Wear. From here, you're just minutes away from the sights and sounds of Exeter city centre, or from road and rail links to countryside and coast. Climb the winding staircases of the Gothic Cathedral. Treat yourself to some retail therapy in the town centre. Then wine and dine by the river at Exeter's Historic Quayside. After a busy day, put your feet up and relax in our tasty restaurant, spacious rooms and extra-comfy kingsize Hypnos beds.
