The Monthly Film Bulletin wrote: "A somewhat disjointed comedy which scores by its acting rather than its plot. ... Henry Kendall as the superior valet and Reginald Purdell as Soapy liberally supply the comic element. Lesley Brook makes Anne seem really a welfare worker and Hugh Williams is a debonair Peter. A slight but entertaining film."
Kine Weekly wrote: "Unpretentious romantic comedy drama of London life, presenting a spirited combination of clean sentiment, lusty rough stuff, and hearty slap-stick. The entertainment, augmented by sound acting and bright dialogue, is adequately equipped to play the role of supporting feature in popular halls. Good average quota hooking."
Picturegoer wrote: "Hugh Williams reveals a flair for comedy in this unpretentious mixture of romance and-rough stuff. ...The story is far-fetched and the treatment far from subtle, but the entertainment is helped out by bright dialogue and good acting, particularly from Henry Kendall, Lesley Brook and Reginald Purdell."
Picture Show wrote: "This is a quite brightly told story of a wealthy young man's adventures when he is taken to a hostel for 'penitent' crooks, and falls in love with the girl who runs it, ending to be a crook himself in order to stay there. The leading roles are excellently played, honours going to Henry Kendall for his delicious portrayal of the hero's butler, and there is plenty of humour." == References ==
