This is a room only accomodation. Very much in need of a revamp. Walls dirty with lots of marks, a good clean of all surfaces. Was very hot although a fan was supplied had to keep the window open all night (no air-conditioning). Bathroom amenities supplied which was a nice touch.
Would I stay here again, personally no.

We arrived at what was supposed to be a b&b, no breakfast available. The room could have done with a good clean marks all over the walls, toothpaste on bathroom wall. Stairs upto the rooms were not hoovered in the 2 days we were their. Remote for tv was missing and ketle was faulty. Reported this on both days but nothing done. First night we stayed the bar was said to close at 12 midnight but doors were banging and very loud people untill 2am. Would not stay again

Asked for a refund as we needed to stay elsewhere but have not had any feedback from them or expedia. Not a happy customer as we use Expedia regularly. They need to look at who they endorse and refund when appropriate.

The pub had been run down, but there is a lot of poverty around in Cornwall. However, the owners had made an effort to improve the interior. Rooms and bar area had been tastefully upgraded,but the bedroom was tight for space. The staff were friendly and helpful, so it's okay for an overnight stay.

Good experience sadly spoilt

Check in was great, greeted by a very friendly and helpful member of staff. The room & ensuite were comfortable, clean and spacious. The location and parking were very good. We had a lovely, tasty and reasonably priced evening meal and delicious desert in the bar, served by friendly staff with great customer service and a good atmosphere... then, a different member of staff came on duty who was rather rude and unhelpful, we waited 20 minutes after ordering a post-meal coffee only to be told the coffee machine wasn't working, we asked for a hot chocolate instead and waited a further 15 minutes only to be given a stone cold drink. When we asked for a replacement we were told that wasn't possible and were very reluctantly given a refund... shame that this poor experience tainted the overall good feeling for our stay.

Terrible bathroom. How not to treat guests.

The first room that we were given was not up to standard, well my standards anyway. So the owner upgraded us to his best room. The room was a good size and everything seemed ok. Then we went into the bathroom . The toilet seat didn't fit and the toilet brush was filthy.
We decided that we weren't staying.
Asked to owner for 50% reduction as we weren't staying point blank refused. Taking it further with help from Citizen Advice.
If this is the standard of the best room's bathroom. Not recommended to stay here.

Disappointed

Don’t stay here if you are looking for a restful sleep. Disturbed every night by rowdiness and speeding cars.
The room only allowed for a double bed pushed against the wall making it difficult to get in and out of bed, worth noting if you have mobility issues. On arrival it was obvious that condiments had not been replenished, had to chase up for tea bags and milk.

It's a pub, clean, large comfortable room

Good location for us. Nice big spacious room, lovely shower.
We were over the garden/courtyard, there were people drinking and talking, didn't bother us or keep us awake. We were worried it might get too roudy, but not at all.
It's a pub and we liked you could come and go via the back stairs and didn't have to go through the pub.
They had music on, but the room we had was not bothered by it.

Our stay here was a mixed bag. I'll cover the positives first

Free parking
Good food
15 minute, easy drive to St Ives

Now the negatives

Stained walls all around the room, especially in the bathroom
Room was extremely hot - fan was provided but didn't make a huge difference
Some staff great and really helpful but some staff rude
Loud live music on until 12:15am. The band were great but not so good when we needed to wake up early to be at an event. Would have been nice to know about this beforehand as we likely would have booked somewhere else.
Was a struggle to park at times, but parking was free.

Overall this was a nice little pub, but not somewhere I would stay again.

This hotel should be at best a 2 star hotel. Very noisy at night. Towels in room had stains and were pretty threadbare. The bathroom had mold in places around the shower. The interior was extremely dirty. Need full update. Duvet on bed appeared to have oily stains. When we ask about the available breakfast, we were told no one was there to cook until 11:00 am.

Great bathroom

Room was very clean. Staff still ensured covid compliance.
In room 7 the bathroom was newly fitted with a wonderful large shower.
Room was let down by lack of kettle. Instead there was a nespresso dolce gusto coffee maker with 20 tea bags and no idea how to make a cup? There were some pods but half were used with the small hole in top and the others were either chocolate or frothy milk.

There were 7 rooms I could see and 10 parking spaces at what was a busy pub. You can park on street between 8pm and 8am.

Cornubia Inn - no air circulation

We stayed at Cornubia Inn for two nights.

Our experiences:
- No WIFI signal in the room.
- The bathroom smells bad. Perhaps, a diffuser will help? We left the the bathroom door open when we left the room and when we came back to open up the room, the entire room smelled like a toilet. This never happened with other hotels, inn or Airbnb.
- The room was very hot because there is no air circulation. We left the window open yet very hot. We barely had a good sleep. (The fan was there but too loud).
- the shower dries out when another room is using a shower.
- No place to sit outside to relax. It would’ve been nice to have 2-3 tables outside just for the inn guests. So we can bring coffee from the room to sit outside and relax. The tables belong to the pub so we have to order from the pub.
- Very noisy since the bar is downstairs, which we sort of expected.
- Bed sheet smelled… especially, a pillow cover smelled like a sweat as if it wasn’t washed properly.
- Not sure if it is worth £100 per night. We booked the Cornwall trip very late and didn’t have many options. I’d recommend you plan your trip early to avoid this.

We were just very glad to leave this place this morning. Again went to bed at 2am and woke up at 6am due to the heat trapped in the room and the noise. We are very happy we don’t have to go back to sleep there :( honestly, the first night, we thought about booking another place… it was that unpleasant.

The room was by a busy main road and the pub below enjoys some loud music nights. Cleaning services and breakfast are suspended during the pandemic (some parts of the webpage still advertise free breakfasts until you notice the small print). The mattress and bed are well used so overall a basic but decent place to stay.
