Travelodge Exeter

Advantages: Convenient for motorway
Disadvantages: Service

...I have stayed at quite a few travelodges in the UK without any problems or complaints, but avoid this one at all cost. My room stunk, the smell was emanating from the bathroom sink. The Wifi advertised was so slow it took over 10 minutes to boot up the welcome page. When i phoned up the service provider I was given the usual bs about it must be my equipment.(Strange as it had been working perfectly a half mile up the road at another Wifi area). Went for a meal in the adjoining Harry Ramsdens restaurant and ordered sausage and mash with green beans. The unappetising looking dish arrived with no green beans. I called the waitress over and she went to get some. They arrived approx 2 minutes later, cold. I have complained to Travelodge, which prompted a reply from the manager of the Exeter site, asking me to phone him. When I...

Review of Forte Travelodge Exeter, Exeter

Exeter

Advantages: Centre of Devon
Disadvantages: None

...Exeter is a really great city to be studying in. the campus is located up on the top of the hill over looking the city and has loads of green space and trees etc. In the summer it's lovely but in the winter when it starts raining sideways it gets a bit bleak. There are loads of things to do in terms of nightlife. besides the union bars and the Lemon Grove where loads of cool bands play, there is also the pheonix and cavern if you're into rock or punk stuff and a couple of nightclubs too. The clubs down on the Quay tend to be full of 16 year olds who are absolutely lashed on white lighting and decked out head to toe in topman gear and ben shermans, but quite a lot of students go to arena nightclub at the other end of town. The Wetherspoons pub called The Imperial is just 10 mins walk from the university and is packed during...

Review of Exeter (England)

Historic Exeter

Advantages: Attractive architecture.Good base for touring South Devon
Disadvantages: Some of the modern archiecture is not appealin

...Exeter, in South Devon, is a pleasant city with a delightful Cathedral and close, a compact shopping centre, museums and art galleries and the Northcott Theatre. The University of Exeter is one of the most attractive campuses in the UK and Exeter is also the home city of the Devon and Dorset Regiment. The lodging scene in the city is good: there are several elegant hotels in the city centre and several more on the edge of the city including one near Exeter Airport. There are also guest houses and a lot of homely bed and breakfast places in Exeter and prices of accommodation are reasonable. The town has a football league team, Exeter City, and recreational facilities in Exeter are good. There are a number of high-quality restaurants and a good range of ethnic eateries including Italian, Indian and Chinese. Another very attractive...

Review of Exeter (England)

My Hometown, Exeter.........

Advantages: Great city, full of culture and history, and plenty to amuse anyone
Disadvantages: none

...Hi, welcome to my hometown of Exeter, in deepest Devon. This is my review of what is going on, from a locals point of view, so come join me, what are you waiting for? First up a bit of history and Geography lesson. Exeter is located in Devon, and is regarded as the capital of the county. Plymouth is larger in size, but Exeter has all the county hall and administrative buildings, while Plymouth is more working class and a large navy background. Exeter is built on the river Exe, which starts on Exmoor, and meets the English Channel/Atlantic Ocean to the south at Exmouth. Exeter used to be badly flooded as the Exe expanded in winter, but a new flood defence and barrier system is in place, and I cannot remember a serious flood in my life, although the last few years have seen some damager, likewise across the country. Exeter started...

Exeter City - The Grecians

Advantages: Got more monet from TV deals and are no londer in recivership, good signings - experience and qualirty in Richardson, Barlow and McCarthy and Blake will have learnt a thing or two off Perryman
Disadvantages: They dont own their ground, the city council do and other financial problems and they will miss Perryman for his tactics and knowlage

.... --------------------------------------------- Club History The entire history of Exeter City is not like Liverpool’s or Manchester United’s, they have never been a big club, and apart from a few Devon Cups, they have won very little honours. They have although stayed in the football league for over 80 years, quite an achievement for a small club. Rugby was more popular in the West Country at the turn of the century and football was sunned and did not get as much popularity as it did in other parts of the UK. The early beginnings of Exeter City can be traced back to team called St Sidwell’s United who played at the turn of the century. Plymouth had the first football team in Devon and Exeter followed but 10 years later. St Sidwell’s played in green and white, strange as they are the colours of Exeter’s arch rivals Plymouth Argyle today. There was another...

Review of Exeter City

GAME.UK.COM a gaming website

Advantages: Good fast easy game ordering
Disadvantages: Reward Card is hard to access via the internet

..., which is a very clever way of getting customer trust. In my view they could have changed the domain name to something snazzier than game.uk.com but I feel that they chose this because it was a web address that would stick in peoples mind down to the fact that it is an unusual set-up. The site lets you make a conclusion on each game before you decide to buy by giving you ratings and detailed reviews. There is also some background information that will appear when you wish to buy that game which will just tell you about the game and its best features. It may also give you website link to a website that is associated with the game in question that you wish to purchase. All games are numbers from newest to oldest from the time that they are released and if you cant find what you wanted to see then you also have the option of looking...

The best decision made to study at Exeter

Advantages: almost everything students look for when choosing a university
Disadvantages: limited accommodation

...It is the second year I study at Exeter and honestly I enjoy every minute here with a beautiful campus in a city of a mixture of tranquility and vibrance. Not a huge city but you have everything you need with a wide variety of shops and restaurants offering products of different price range. I walk to town from the campus almost every day to do a bit shopping. Last year I lived in Cook Mews which was really superb as the room layout was so spacious and practical. I was lucky that my room didn't face the rail and was relatively quiet but even my flatmates who were on the opposite side said they didn't have sleeping problem at all. I study Account and Finance and I must say that Exeter Business School is one of the best in the country. We have knowledgeable and supportive lecturers; teaching is of a high quality and students are all...

Historical Exeter

Advantages: One of the oldest cities in the UK
Disadvantages: none

...I'm concentrating on the historical aspect, as Exeter offers so much, it would be impossible to include everything in one opinion. Exeter is the gateway to the Southwest, with easy access to the M5. Its the capital of Devon and also a Cathedral city. If you are a visitor to the area, you will soon discover, that Exeter is steeped in history, if you look beyond the shops and offices. Exeter or Isca Dumnoniorum dates back to the Roman era, established in 50AD, making it one of the oldest cities in the United Kingdom. Originally it was a Roman settlement, then developed into a city. Some of the original walls can still be seen today, although Exeter has increased in size somewhat. Almost in the centre of the city is the Cathedral of St Peter, built by the Normans around 1100AD. The cathedral has been largely rebuilt over the years...

Exeter

Advantages: Whatever you want your find
Disadvantages: Nightclubs

...I vist this city on a regular basis due to visting friends and quite frankly having a better night life than where I live. I will most likely give a different view of Exeter than others due to the angle of what I will be looking at. I also must state I went to school in Exeter for 5years and then to college there for one year. So the place is like a second home to me. Exeter has near enough any and everthing you may or might want. The layout of the city center is excellent and the varity or shops are also very good. They have a cinema in the main town center which to me is great because where I live you have to be able to drive to get to the cinema. The transport in Exeter is Superb! only Buses run up and down the highstreet Pubs can be quite pricey but if you know the place quite well your find the cheap ones hidden a way not to...
