Great location, only 5 minutes walk from Exeter St David's train station. I've only stayed for one night due to business travelling. The breakfast variety and service experience was great, a good variety of refreshments.
The building itself shows its age, and my floor was very squeaky, I hope there were no tenants below me! I've opted on with the shared bathroom option and the bathroom was sparkling clean.
Overall great place!

Stayed here for one night in August. Was really impressed with the Telstar. Staff were lovely and very welcoming. Room was cosy (I had a single room) and had everything I needed. Breakfast was great and fab location in town for Exeter St David’s or Exeter Central station. Will definitely stay again when passing through!

Really nice B & B, clean and very central, just a 5 minutes walk to the shops and 10 minutes to the river. Staff were very friendly and the service was good. No complaints at all.

호텔은 역에서 매우 가까워서 캐리어가 있음에도 힘들지 않았습니다. 호텔의 스태프들은 매우 친절했고, 저에게 좋은 서비스를 제공하기 위해 노력해주었습니다. 호텔 방도 좋았지만, 아무래도 shared bathroom 인 점은 불편했습니다. 물론 투숙객이 많지 않고 분비지 않아 제가 화장실을 이용하는데 불편함은 없었지만, 그럼에도 방을 나가서 화장실을 이용하는 점이 약간 불편했습니다. 그 점만 제외하고는 호텔 조식도 좋았고, 다른 모든 면은 좋았습니다.

We stayed in room 7 a simple basic twin bed room. Travelling for University of Exeter open day and this place was excellent. 5 mins from Exter train station, 20 mins walk to campus (note its uphill so allow 20-30 mins), super clean. Shared bathroom worked well for us for short 2 night stay. One bathroom with shower/bath/toilet and another with just a toilet. Room had a good selection of tea and coffee (including instant and a French press). Washbasin in room. Room had soap/lotion and so did the shared bathroom. Towels nice quality. Breakfast (we had the large full English) was excellent with high quality bacon and sausages, beans, tomato, mushrooms, hashbrown, and toast. Orange juice was watery but coffee excellent. Since we were attending the Uni open day and needed to leave early in morning they started breakfast at 7.30am on Saturday instead of the usual 8am so we could be heading out by 8am.... Highly recommend as a good value local stay.

Bit disappointing as did not live up expectations in terms of the photos. Number of things in need of repair eg towel rail and blind on window didn't fully cover the window to keep our light. Parking also challenging. However breakfast fine and staff friendly. Generally in need of a face lift.
