Run down place
Old and run down pub with few rooms in poor condition, overall poor standard. No food served, but we was offered breakfast 09:00 at surcharge of aroind 9 £/ person Could not accept credit card , and only ATM in the small down was off line, had to drive 16 km back and forth to withdraw cash. Wifi did not work, got a reduction in room rate120 instead of 145£) that was high for the room standard

The bed linen was clean. The room was knackered. The tv didn't work, there was mould in the shower and the wallpaper was peeling off. There were street lights outside the window but the curtains were thin lace so didn't keep the room dark.

Paid for unavailable breakfast!!
Room was fine. As described. But no breakfast was available as, we were told, there wasn't a chef. But we didn’t ask for a reduction.. so it's our own fault!!! We had already paid before we asked about the breakfast. However as the lack of breakfast was known to the staff..we should have been offered a reduction.

You don't get what you pay for
Booking clearly stated breakfast included, was told point blank it wouldn't be included and if I wanted any it would cost extra and only after 9am. Pay for breakfast don't get any, no food available at all you have to go out in the evening. No parking on site, free car park 5 mins walk away. Bedroom very dusty, covid cleaning measures? Wrote the word covid in the dust on the tv stand. Found a half used packet of tissues in bedside unit and a used towel hanging on the back of the bathroom door!

Nice staff but poor value for money
We stayed 2 weekday nights in June. We paid over £80 a night for room only and I'm afraid to say that this was not good value for money. Whilst the staff were very friendly and helpful (I have no problem here) the room was tiny, and in a poor state of repair. One of the window panes was smashed and one window did not open at all. The room was not cleaned while we were there, and whilst this might be a a consequence of COVID, this was not explained to us. The bed was also uncomfortable as it was a very cheap mattress. This pub only provides breakfast (if required) and there are limited options to eat within Lostwithiel which means high demand. We ate in both pubs (Globe & Royal Oak) but only because we had booked tables well in advance. There is no pub car park and very limited on street parking but there is a big car park 5 mins walk away that is free.

How on earth can YOU advertise this B&B meaning breakfast included in your advertised price , then they charge us for breakfast . You are not respecting the clients contract with you . So you should not advertise as B&B

Modest B&B
The King's Arms states when you arrive that it is not an hotel, but is a B & B. It is in fact a pub with bedrooms above. The staff were very friendly and the breakfasts were excellent. If you stay more than one night, the rooms are not serviced. It was necessary to go down to the bar to ask for replenishment of room supplies. The pub is on the main street through Lostwithiel and hence there is traffic noise at night. There were no chairs in the bedroom and nowhere to sit quietly downstairs other than the bar area.

Just an overnight stay
We've stayed in better accommodation and we've stayed in worse. Room was spotlessly clean and the bed was comfy. Shower was excellent. Plenty of orange pine furniture!! Breakfast was fine and served with friendliness. Nice locals and good access to the rest of Lostwithiel. Fabulous restaurant just down the road called Trethewen. Overall it was okay for a one night stay.
