Positive Reviews
positive:
Professional and friendly service
The hosts were typically spotlighted as one of the best aspects about staying at the Downsview Guesthouse. Along with appreciating the warm welcome provided, the guest house's proprietors were generally labelled as alert, professional and always willing to help.
positive:
Spacious and clean rooms
For the most part, the guest house's rooms were praised by previous visitors. As well as being apparently spacious and well-equipped, the rooms at the accommodation were often considered flawlessly clean throughout.
positive:
Wonderfully relaxing location
The Downsview Guesthouse's location, in a reportedly peaceful and scenic area, was a highlight for many former guests. In addition, the guest house is also a short drive away from Ashford town centre, while convenient transport links for travelling further afield were also regularly seen as a plus point.
Negative Reviews
negative:
Breakfast not included in price
Whilst its quality was highly rated overall, previous visitors were understandably disappointed about having to pay an extra fee for breakfast - regardless if picking a continental or full English option - when staying at the Downsview Guesthouse.
negative:
Wi-Fi not the most reliable
The Wi-Fi is one of the weakest aspects about the guest house, at least according to the overall sentiment of former guests. For those that used the free Wi-Fi, it was often claimed that it was unreliable - to the point that it even proved to be inaccessible at times.
negative:
Questionable bed comfort
A small minority of past visitors to the Downsview Guesthouse were critical about the beds supplied. Along with the bedding seen as heavy and uncomfortable on occasion, it was also stated that some of the double beds are made up from two single mattresses.
