Very Good

Very friendly and helpful staff - highly recommended! Inn/accommodation run by ex-British army (Gurkhas) who have decorated the establishment with regimental achievements.
The sheets and towels were very clean.
Mould on bathroom wall
Yellow net curtains falling off rod.
Wallpaper scuffed and missing.
Restaurant for dinner seems to be their main focus and the food was very good the hotel side really lets them down.

Outstanding seemingly unbeatable value for a single or double room in the area, on-site restaurant very popular and great dining option if you don't fancy going out, complimentary breakfast was a lovely addition. Stern but fair and attentive customer service, a grubby shower tray and loose/ limp towel rail but these are minor issues I can get over and expected at this price level. Thank you Woolaston Inn.
We came to sample the Gurka restaurant that's part of the pub/hotel. Excellent food, well worth the visit. Comfy bed, and staff were pleasant and attentive.
Fantastic stay. Friendly service great food. Easy to check in and out.
Look forward to booking again

Property was spotlessly clean and was unique because of its ghirka authenticity. Staff were friendly, polite and efficient in all aspects of their work.I would recommend this establishment to anyone wishing to stay or just requiring something different in the way of Asian cuisine

Staff were very lovely and their food was nice too. The grounds are pretty and the restaurant is decorated with traditional items which is a nice touch. However the sleeping accommodation areas are very tierd and in desperate need of updating replainting and in some areas re-tileing.
All the staff are so friendly, everything was clean and tidy and the beds were so comfortable! But the food was out of this world amazing! Will definitely be going back!!
Two nights needed. Room was fine, plenty of parking, WiFi fine in my room. Had to wait a couple of minutes for the shower water to get up to temp but it wasn't an electric one so I was perfectly happy. I ate with two others in the restaurant on the second night and the Nepalese food was very good, beautifully spiced, the best thing about it.

Good value
Basic accom. but perfectly adequate for a short stay.Good bfast.Restaurant very good and very popular with locals which is always a good sign.Good value.
Good Indian / Nepalese food in the restaurant.
Comfortable bed with clean sheets. Bathroom very tired. Black mould around bathtub and taps. Toilet not working correctly. No hot water for a bath one evening. Windows of room had not been cleaned for ages. Front door to property was locked at night. I could not unlock the door in the morning to get out to my car. Surely that is a fire risk. How do you get out in an emergency?
I kept thinking of the 60s song "We Gotta Get Out of this Place" by Eric Burden and the Animals!
