What a great little guest house phoned up Sunday morning asking could they accommodate us immediately and Nick had a room available I offered to pay extra for early entry and was immediately told no the lovely guest house was £69 for the night and in the city centre very clean tea and coffee facilities excellent I won’t hesitate to stay their again can’t thank Nick enough for all his hospitality good luck to a great wee guest house. Thank you 

Great 

I am writing this review to express my deep dissatisfaction with the experience my girlfriend and I had during our recent stay at the Irvine Guest House. Despite our expectations of a comfortable and peaceful stay, we encountered severe noise disturbances that significantly impacted our ability to have a good night sleep and enjoy our time at this establishment.

Noise Disturbance

Went to this Irvine Guest House with my partner.  There was so many cobwebs dangling above the bed we slept in
The shower seal was black filthy and the windows were just as filthy.  This place needs a professional cleaner 
Won’t ever be back n refused to pay

Filthy

I have never taken to TripAdvisor to write a bad review before but after the service (lack of) that we received last night I am going to make an exception.
There were 6 of us travelling in our party, my parents, my partner and I and our two kids. My parents arrived first to check in with the children to discover that the kids bedroom was smelling of smoke, not sure how this could have been missed/overlooked by the housekeeping team, anyway the owner was text and he advised that he would go over and spray the bedroom while we were out.
All 6 of us returned to the house around 9pm to discover the whole house including our bedrooms stinking of weed!!! One of the rooms downstairs had its door open and had music blaring. The smell was so overbearing, understandably we didn't think this was okay or what we had signed up to when booking epsicially with a 10 and 12 year old. Again we text the owner to express our concerns. He called us around 5minutes later and I cant even put into words how appalled I was with his attitude. His solution to the problem was that we check out and find somewhere else to stay!!! He would refund us our money but tough luck if our new accommodation was more expensive, I have never heard anything like it in my life. If it was my property I would be wanting to make sure nobody was smoking in it or potentially causing damage. We said no we didn't want to move as it was late and had already put the kids to bed, after much back and forth "trying to sort the damm thing" (his words) he agreed to come down and find out where the smoke and smell was coming from. As promised he arrived and knocked on the doors to ask if anyone was smoking, of course everyone said no although I'm convinced the smell would have given it away. He then came up to our rooms to explain that he has knocked on the doors and that nobody was smoking. We again expressed that we were not really happy at the situation to which again he told us the easiest solution for HIM was for us to leave as he would find it very difficult to ask someone downstairs to leave! I'm sorry but as the landlord/owner it is your responsibility to ensure and enforce that your guests are abiding the law and not smoking in public premises if you are not comfortable doing this then I suggest you may be in the wrong job or need to employ a manager who is  not scared to do so. Might also be a good start to put the signs (required by law) in the bedrooms and lobby to explain that smoking is strictly prohibited.
I just can't believe that his solution was for us 6 to pack up and find somewhere else to stay to save him having an awkward conversation with one of his other guests. We were really made to feel like we were being an inconvenience to him.
On a side note, as you do when one thing annoys you, the smaller things become big things such as the toilet seat being loose, the shower not draining so the water then went out the cubical, cobwebs on the roof, we even had a little grey slater creepy crawly on out bathroom wall.
I hope the owner really thinks about how he handled the situation last night and how it could be improved on.

Very poor management with appalling customer service

I've stayed in Nick's properties in Irvine a couple of times now & whilst I can recommend both I found the Irvine Guest House Irvine Guest House was ideal for me, located just off the main street in Irvine. I stayed in Room 3 a super en-suite double complete with Netflix which was a bonus, the room is well furnished and having no-one above was wonderfully quiet. I found that communication was excellent, as always, with Nick providing all the information needed before arrival. What was also appreciated was the complimentary tea / coffee & biscuits replenished daily with the bed also being made up daily, the local info was useful in providing me with a super dinner at a local restaurant just a few minutes walk away. Irvine itself is a nice quiet town with some lovely buildings and streets with a vibrant shopping centre, pubs & restaurants, it's well served by local buses & trains and the Irvine Guest House has private off street parking adjacent. Overall a super place & great stay whilst in Ayrshire.

1st time staying won’t be the last

Beautiful Room, amazing en suite and shower, very homely. Host was extremely friendly and efficient service! Lovely furnishing, big TV and comfy bed. Appreciate the complimentary tea tray and toiletries. Would highly recommend, hope to be back!

Fantastic Place!

Upon arrival it looks decent enough. The decor is modern. The guest house is unmanned and our keys were left in the foyer which was fine. Upon entering the room the overwhelming smell of cat urine completely overwhelmed us and we tried in vain to contact the owner. The room was nicely decorated but was not very clean. The mirrors looked like they were washed with milk. In order to get ready for my evening event I had to clean the mirrors. 1 Towel for 2 guests. The tea/coffee is enough for 1 brew each and your left 1 biscuit to share. Left Windows open for the entire evening to try and get rid of the cat pee stench, Upon returning it was still as bad. Had to sleep with the Windows open and barley slept at all due to the stench and cold from having to have open windows. No mention of breakfast in the booking nor the fact they don't provide it at £65.00 a night. Could have gone to Riverside Hotel for that price and had 2 towels staff on hand no cat urine stench and no doubt 2 biscuits in your double room. Absolutely avoid

TERRIBLE

Had the pleasure of staying in this lovely wee guest house recently. Room was spacious and very clean. There were tea and coffee facilities. Very comfy bed. Toilet was very clean and there was an excellent shower.  Very close to all amenities. All in all an excellent guest house.

Highly recommended

Booked as an overnight stop and glad that is all it was. Fitted double bedsheet was crumpled and clearly had not been changed after the previous guest. The walls and ceiling cracked and blistered, dried toothpaste sticking to the wall behind the wash hand basin, curtain hanging off of the rail and the hem stained and frayed. One saggy and heavily stained arm chair and what was supposed to be a "wardrobe"-
 a wooden structure measuring about 14" wide and containing 4 hangers, a table top ironing board and iron with one box type storage unit beneath and two beside. The TV covered in dust and the only mirror being above the tiny wash hand basin in the shower room. The shower was the only good feature worth a mention. Charged £59.00 for this and not including breakfast. The most peculiar thing about this place was that it appears not to be manned. We received a text message advising of door entry code and where to find the room key but at no time saw anyone in charge or even another guest.
