Little gem in busy market town

Real 'down to earth' locals pub - lovely double room (single occupancy) overlooking main street - one of the best I've stayed in. Room only basis but I wouldn't hesitate to go back.

A really nice room for the money

For the price I paid this room was fantastic. Well equipped, very clean, nicely decorated and recently renovated by the look of it. The shower was really powerful which was nice. I managed to find a free parking spot just on the opposite side of the road too.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities

Good atmosphere downstairs, very poor upstairs.

We arrived to find there was cobwebs on the walls, no toilet roll holder, UHT milk 2 months out of date, slime coming out of the shower head, waste bin still had rubbish in from previous clients, radiator pipes covering falling off, ceiling light full of flies etc.

Shower fungus

The shower head was growing some kind of mould/fungus. Really gross. General cleanliness was pretty poor. And loud music until midnight on Saturday meant there was no possibility of sleeping before then.
