    Room 6 - Lifeboat Inn St Ives

    Up the side alley and very steep stairs to top floor. Room nice with seperate shower room which we really liked. Shower pressure good. No view, but we knew this and its a lower price to other rooms on same sight. Central location with everything we needed. We will be booking again.

    Nice place to stay in heart of St Ives

    The Lifeboat Inn is a nice setting and the family room overlooking the Harbour is great. Great breakfast and nice staff. No fault to the hotel but being next to the road is noisy, especially when the bin collectors are out in the morning.

    The stair access both within our unit and accessing the unit was unacceptable and extremely unsafe
