We only stayed one night, it was literally a stop over to sleep. It’s all we needed. The room was a little out dated but didn’t affect the stay. It was clean and comfortable. Simple as that.

Thanks for taking the time to leave your great review.The Small Double rooms are indeed a little outdated in terms of the ensuites, but that's a deliberate decision, so that we can continue to offer rooms across a range of budgets. Most of our Standard and all of our Superior grade rooms are very up to date with modern ensuites.We hope to welcome you back again soon.Kind regards

Hi James, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We'd love to know what we could have done to deserve 10/10! We would encourage all guests to let us know what we could do to make their stay better, preferably while you're actually with us, so we can possibly sort something out immediately. Kind regards, Martin and the team.

Response from Martin on 8 Sept 2020
Hi Rajesh, Thanks for taking the time to leave your review. We're sorry to hear about the issues you encountered during your stay. We usually have sufficient parking bays for all of our guests, but if people park badly, then we do occasionally run out. There's a Barclays Bank just over the road that can be used as overflow at weekends. With regard to the noise by the other guests, we apologise, but we do try very hard to make it clear that we run a calm and peaceful guest house, not a party house. We have noise monitoring equipment in the house, and we can confirm that no alerts were raised during your stay. It is indeed true that your room was at the front of the house, so if you choose to stay again, please get in touch and we'll allocate you a room in a different part of the house. Kind regards,

A Nice little guest house with Parking & Wifi.
This is a nice little guest house and the proprietor (Martin) was exceptionally friendly and helpful. My booking was a little complicated and there were a few paperwork issues, but they were soon sorted. The room I has was small, but clean. The TV didn't work properly (I think the aerial had a problem) - and I think it may be on the list for a slight update - but was fine for me. Breakfast in the morning was good quality and cooked fresh. All in all it suited what I needed this time.

Hi Graeme, Thanks for taking the time to leave a review. We're sorry that your 'self check-in' email didn't reach you - but we got that sorted when we received your own email address. This is the first we've heard about the TV in your room not working properly. If you had mentioned it during your stay we would obviously have looked at it for you. The room you booked is described as a Small Double. If you prefer a larger room we would recommend booking a Standard or Superior double on a return visit. We're glad that you appreciated our cooked breakfast. Kind regards, Martin

Martin the owner was delightful and so helpful. Breakfast was superb but a little slow due to a new kitchen hob they were still trying to work out. But fab and full brekkie. Suggestions provided for somewhere good to eat for dinner as we’d never been to Ipswich before. Plus a very handy Sainsbury’s local opposite in case you need anything at the last minute! Thank you Martin and co for a very enjoyable evening for my 8-yr old son, 78-yr old dad and I 😁😁

Great accommodation in central location
We were visiting friends in Ipswich so only needed a bed for the night. The hotel was conveniently located, easy to find and good parking. We arrived late so used the pin code on the door-excellent system and easy to use. Room was a good size with comfortable bed and good quality linen. We didn’t stay for breakfast as we didn’t have time but it smelt good!! Would definitely stay again.

Lattice lodge was a great place to stay on a recent work trip. Martin was very welcoming and friendly. The room was clean and comfortable with soft towels and a comfy bed. The breakfast was very tasty. Martin had provided lots of information about the local area and things to do which would have been very handy if I wasn’t in the area for work. There’s ample parking at the property and there’s a sainsburies local across the road and a friendly Italian restaurant just down the road which handily does takeaway too.

A very pleasant stay of 5 nights.
Had a wonderful room. Martin was a wonderful host and he and his staff really care that you are happy with your accommodation. I really liked that he had a small common fridge available for guest use. He is a real hands on guy and seemed to always be doing laundry or cleaning. Would definitely recommend staying here. Also nice to have a grocery store across the street, on a bus route and nearby restaurants. He puts together a nice info pack which was handy. I also appreciate that he is very eco friendly.

Hi Sherri, Thanks for the lovely review. I do get stuck in with the laundry and kitchen when we're busy, but any accolades for general cleanliness are down to my wonderful housekeeping team! I usually have more than enough admin and paperwork to be getting done behind the scenes, but am always available to guests when they have a question, whether that be in person, over the phone, or via email. We're glad you enjoyed your stay with us. Kind regards, Martin and the team

Wanted a place to stay close to our stop the next day. We hoped to walk to town and have dinner but there was a bike festival so it was very busy. We went to the pasta/pizza place a block away recommended by the owner and had a very good meal. Seemed to have quite a few business travelers.

Great stay, would recommend
We had a lovely stay at the Lattice Lodge. We were called by the owner before our arrival to ask when we would arrive, so that he could ensure he was available to check us in. When we arrived later than expected, he was very understanding. The Lodge was quite large, with a couple of communal areas and large rooms. The only issue we had was that the bathroom in our room was a bit small, but since we were only staying one night we didn't mind. We paid for breakfast when we were there, which was reasonably priced, locally sourced, and delicious. The owner was friendly and keen to share his knowledge of the area, and made himself available at all times to assist. The resident cat was also very sweet. We will be booking in again, next time we are in Ipswich and would recommend anyone else to do the same.

Just one night. Martin was friendly and welcoming. Immediately on arrival we were shown around the house which made us feel welcome and comfortable about our surroundings. Martin assured us that we could contact him at all times if required. Breakfast was of good quality with the best bacon ever. Unfortunately toast was barely brown and slightly leathery due to being kept warm in a basket covered with cloth! However, this is easily remedied by using a toast rack to ensure crispness. Unfortunately the breakfast is one price regardless of whether one is able to eat the excellent full English meal of eggs, bacon, sausage, hash browns and beans, mushrooms, and tomatoes or if in our case my sister and I had (our choice) 1 egg 1 slice of bacon and mushrooms. Perhaps a little fairer to offer two choices. I should, however, add that there was also fruit juice and cereals on offer. It is just that some people have smaller appetites. The rooms were beautifully clean and linen well ironed and fresh. Single beds were very small and lovely feather quilt a shade to narrow so that it constantly slipped off at night and sleep was disturbed. These are only small points, but for the price charged I feel they would be worth addressing since everything else is very good.

Hi Urban. Thanks for the lovely review. We do appreciate that even though the TV's are only 5 years old, and are 19" LCD screens, they're probably smaller than some people expect these days. What we can tell you is that they replaced 14" screens! Rest assured that whenever we have to replace one, or when we renovate a room, they will be upgraded. We hope to see you again soon.
