Brooks Guesthouse Bristol
Clean room, easy check in, staff are nice. Corridor outside our room smelt a bit damp so probably could do with being aired out.

Harbour Hotel Bristol
Lovely room, clean and spacious. Slight smell from drain in bathroom - expect this is a one off/room specific issue? Staff friendly. Breakfast okay - opted to upgrade to hot menu (mushrooms on toast were nice, not the most exciting options).
