The room was pleasant and the bed was extremely comfy, the remote for the tv looked like it needed a good clean and the ceiling fan blew air up not down. Expensive for what it was, wouldn’t have minded if it was an £85 room.

Staff were very polite and helpful. Was not overly impressed with the room however but ok for one night. I doubt I would use this hotel again. Free parking and friendly helpful staff were two positives.

Friendly staff, although Hotel access seems a bit like a backup plan. Heading in behind the bar to get to the rooms. The showers also were iffy on temperature, solid temp for first few mins, then ice cold and steaming hot cycles.

Clean rooms but surprised my room was not en suite, with a private bathroom up the corridor. Excellent staff. Dodgy door for access after 11pm. I was locked out and had to knock on the window. Also no breakfast available. Good beer in the pub itself.

Avoid pub quiz night!

Pleasant, spacious room, friendly staff on arrival, however no parking available so had to park on the road outside. It was pub quiz night and my room was directly above the bar, so it was very noisy (suggest avoiding Tuesdays or arriving in time to get a parking space and joining in the quiz!). Other than this a pleasant stay.
