We went into the building and the smell was...

5/5 Excellent

"Nice area to stay if you want to be close to carbis bay beach and st. ives. Excellent bed and bedding, we enjoyed the countryside view, end quietness. although the cows woke us up one morning 😊. More than helpful Lorena responded very quickly and sufficiently. Hairdryer was one love. There was no hob which I needed, but maybe it’s ok as if someone will fry meal the room could get sticky with fat 😅 Good value for money. We can return. Highly recommended. "

"Super stay at the Hotel Boskerris. The hotel was modern, clean and beautiful. My room always nice and cool despite warm midday weather. The balcony looks on the bay so sunset cocktails really special. Easy access to public transport for non-drivers like me. Would highly recommend this property. "
