Has potential
The food and the service was very good. The place itself could be amazing. The thing that let it down for us was the cleanliness. It felt like the whole place could do with a deep clean.

2/10 Poor

Don't choose this hotel
It is totally unacceptable, We pay £89 for one night, we are late check in about 10p.m. We found that there are many spider nets on the top of the room, white and big, just like a abandoned house just leave there for decades. We request change room, but there are only two and fully booked. Couldn't imagine who would like to sleep over night facing the spider net. And we ask the lady could we refund or refund half to us because we are decide to book another room cause my little daughter is scared to cry. She said we could apply online through hotels.com but she turn around refused to refund us by replying hotels.com, I don't know why the hotels.com only protecting their own interests. It is unreasonable and unacceptable paying £89 for living a room, like this one, it is my first time in my life go to a hotel room like this. Nerver book this hotel.

A pub stay as it should be.
Lovely proper pub stop. Large room. Food was good and well stocked bar. The staff and customers very pleasant which as a lone traveller is always nice. Recommended.

6/10 Good

Staff were very friendly and accommodating and the Inn is in a great location, with generous, spacious rooms. The breakfast was delicious. Our stay would have been perfect if any care had been given to the standards of hygiene. Our room was covered in cobwebs, the shower drain covered in hairs, and the same with the bedsheets. It's a shame that it is not seen as important to not use pillow cases with mascara stains, or to carry out the basic task of vacuuming a rug, which was pretty disgusting. When I mentioned this to the staff, I was told that this was due to the hotel being 'dog friendly'. A very poor excuse for not maintaining basic standards of hygiene. Overall, a few basic steps would have really elevated our stay.

4/10 Fair

Look beautiful but poor up close.
The Engine Inn was brilliantly located between Penzance and St Ives and had fantastic local views. The room was spacious and had the potential to be amazing. Unfortunately it was not. The bed stunk although the linen was freshly washed. Bathroom was an excellent size, really useful if you require a wet room but covered in mould and people’s hair who had used it before us. No toilet roll and now shower gel etc to use. The room looks beautiful but it’s really let down. Be warned, if you are downstairs the take ear plugs because the noise from upstairs is so loud - not much management can do about that, it’s an old building with old floorboards but just a helpful tip.

Look no further for the quaint country experience
We had such a lovely stay at the Engine Inn! The countryside views from the garden are absolutely stunning, the perfect place to enjoy a cocktail and chat with the locals. Owner Bianca was so friendly, and she offers an amazing full breakfast for a great value. The rooms are very cozy, with the exposed beams and rustic decor reminiscent of a simpler time. We would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a nice country escape!
