Negative Reviews

negative:

Occasional criticism of rooms

A few critics suggested the rooms at A1 Summerville Guest House had a slightly dated feel and would benefit from being given a more contemporary look. There were also claims that certain rooms were a little cramped.

negative:

Reports of nuisance noise

There were occasional reports from light sleepers that noise from connecting rooms sometimes travelled too easily though thin walls.

negative:

Suburban location wasn't ideal for non-drivers

Some guests felt the location was a little out-of-the-way for non-motorists as it was in a residential area on the southern side of the Tyne Valley and off the Metro network. However, there were bus stops nearby for easy trips to Newcastle city centre.
