Great experience

All very good. Janice greeted us and explained all we needed. Gave us a selection of rooms and son Robert assisted us with cases. Parking on site secure. Breakfast included and was as substantial as we chose. Hosts very accommodating. Explained options for great evening meal at Italian resto. If we were in the area again we would definitely choose to stay again. One of our better experiences with bb.

A lovely guest house with a very friendly hostess

Our hostess was very friendly and extremely helpful. She arranged a table for dinner and the taxi ride to take us there. In the morning she serves a most generous delicious breakfast with great coffee. She gave us a larger room with a king size bed without us asking for it!

Greenbank guest house

Spent only the one night at Greenbank Guest House but would happily have stayed longer. The staff were welcoming and friendly and had no issues with us coming or going throughout the duration of our stay. The room was bigger than required and had clean facilities and the free breakfast was greatly enjoyed in the morning. The neighbourhood was ideal as it was close to restaurants and amenities. Barrow station was within walking distance and attractions where only a short taxi drive away. The only negative thing I can say is that the initial impression was less than desirable due to ongoing renovations, however the room itself was more than adequate.

Decent hotel with great hospitality.

Though we arrived late at night for the check-in, we were welcomed by the hotel staff of the hotel. The rooms were good, nicely decorated but not that big. The washrooms were decent, just few more additions can be done to make it look better. The breakfast was amazing, sumptuous veg breakfast with cereals, fruits, toast, mushrooms, baked beans, Patty, etc. The experience was good, few more enhancements can make the stay much better. Nice hospitality...Enjoyed the stay
