I wouldn’t stay here again if you paid me. The rooms are tired, uncomfortable and pokey. There is a complete lack of customer service, and the place feels more like a drop in centre rather than a guest house.

Twin room with ensuite up 2 flights of narrow steep unlit stairs. Could not fully open the door due lack of space. Full English breakfast not quite full and rushed. Not allowed to sit in dining area ( the only common area) to do planning and paperwork. Wi-Fi questionable. No space in room so sat on the stairs to do planning and paperwork. Overall, very disappointing and the best part was handing the key back on departing.

I enjoyed my stay at Bow guest House. The owner, Mr Raza, was a very nice man and accommodating. Free parking on site was a great bonus. The guest house is near the centre of Reading so very convenient. It is not the poshest part of town tbf, bit of street noise at night but it didn't bother me. The accommodation was basic but good for the price. Thank you Mr Raza
